Data Initiative for Environmental and Climate Action in California's TK–12 Schools

The purpose of the Data Initiative for Environmental and Climate Action in California's TK–12 Schools is to develop and maintain an interactive database (filterable by county or district), that communicates data related to scale, equity, context, and progress on indicators of environmental and climate action in schools. This initiative supports using data to increase awareness of the current state of environmental and climate action in California’s TK-12 schools, to analyze gaps and opportunities; and to increase agency at the state, regional, and local level for strategic investments in action. Ultimately, this data initiative aims to center environmental and climate action as a core tenet of public education. 

The data for this initiative is being collected and analyzed by Ten Strands, with support and contributions from UndauntedK12,  the UC Berkeley Data Discovery Program, the California Environmental Literacy Initiative (CAELI), and other advising partners.
