Above, you'll find links to all of our programs currently offered, including lessons that can be taught from "Salt to Soil" teaching about the interconnectedness of the ocean to every aspect of life. Resources for teachers are included to continue exploring the program's topics after the lesson ends.
The Climate Action and Oceans team has designed multiple programs to be offered to youth aged 5-18. Programs are offered in a classroom setting, outside, or at other community-based events.
Climate change and the oceans extend far beyond science class. They are interconnected themes that can be meaningfully explored across many subject areas.
