Climate Literacy

with stories  in every classroom at all grade levels across all subject areas

Earth is in a state of climate emergency. To turn this around, we need to become a climate literate society. Schools are ground zero for this effort.

Climate Lit is a resource hub for building young people’s climate literacy with literature, film, and stories in other media. Our mission is to promote universal climate literacy and climate literacy education as a means to transition to an ecological civilization.

Keeling Curve

The Keeling Curve is a graph that depicts the amount of carbon dioxide in Earth’s atmosphere every day since 1958. It shows the ongoing increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, alongside the seasonal variation in CO2 levels. The curve is named after Charles David Keeling, who began the monitoring program in 1958. He was the first person to make regular measurements of carbon dioxide in Earth’s atmosphere.
