Abstract:While the National Park Service (NPS) units and other public lands offer us unique opportunities to recognize effects of climates change, Scott Ramsey and Steve Sassaman argue that in order to engage and advocate for solutions, we must first uncover our own relationships with the natural world. [...]Jess Dominick, Lauren Ford-Peterson, Katherine Wright, and Karen Wang tackle the pressing issue of helping youth (middle school and high school ages) in San Mateo County, California (near San Francisco), to understand some critical climate-related issues in their region, including sea level rise, wildfires, and biodiversity loss, through the county's Youth Exploring Climate Science (YECS) programs.
