Session

Three short presentations serve as case studies on greening curriculum by integrating the topics of Sustainability, Climate change, and Net-Zero into the classroom. Approaches vary from institution-wide, to program-wide, all the way down to individual instructors in their own classes. Disciplines covered include Computer Science, Business Management, Geography, and Physical Education (and many others, second-hand). For the second half of the session, participants will split into groups, and using a framework of suggested topics, will discuss and brainstorm on the current state of their organizations, visible and invisible barriers to progress, and ways forward on tackling climate change through policy change, culture change, and mindset change. Key take-aways from this highly interactive portion of the session will be methods of leveraging existing policies and activities, organizations and groups that can serve as resources, and the knowledge of approaches that have been successful elsewhere.
