R.-1 18-2467 Approval by the Board of Education of Amendment, Board Policy BP 6142.5, Environmental and Climate Change Literacy Policy, revising the regulations that will involve research, review, and recommendation of curriculum for adoption and best practices for instruction; ensure the articulation of science and history curricula; assign and schedule teachers to provide instruction; create a resource document for teachers to use in teaching climate literacy and develop integrated, action-based projects; provide ongoing professional development; and find/pursue/develop financial resources necessary to fully implement these goals.
It is crucial that the School Board adopt the Climate Change Literacy policy because it deals with the most crucial issue of our time - climate change and the destruction of the environment we live in. Students much be prepared to understand the process and come up with viable solutions to adapt and mitigate.
Climate change is one of the most important issues that we face today. In order for real change to happen, we need to educate young people so they care about the issue and know the extent of the issue. We need to act quickly because this problem isn't going away and students are the ones who will be able to change things.
I strongly believe that education on climate change and the environment is necessary for students. OUSD should make the environment part of the curriculum so that students become aware of the environmental impact of our actions; consequentially, they will join the efforts in mitigating climate change, making the world and everything on it healthier and happier.
As a student at Oakland Tech, I believe that for all students to become climate change literate is incredibly important. This generation is pivotal in the mitigating of climate change. If we continue to ignore climate change's presence, then the problem will only become worse until we reach a point of no return. Understanding climate change is the first step in working to mitigate it. You have the power to choose how Oakland students are educated so this change is influential and significant.
Climate Change is one of the biggest concerns in the world today and education in Environmental Science is the key to solving all of the current issues that we face today in the world.
Climate change is one of the biggest issue that our generation is facing and educating students about what climate change is and how to begin mitigating climate change will be a huge step in the right direction. Giving teachers the resources to teach a class on this subject will be pivotal in beginning the education of the next generation, seeing as they are the ones who will suffer the consequences from climate change.

Education on climate change is extremely important in the process of mitigating climate change. If no one understands or know the problem and what to do, then no one will take action. ThatÅ› why education on this topic is important.
All students have the right to know about their world, and the reality of climate change. Climate Change is one of the most imminent problems approaching current generation. Climate Change must be talked about, and schools can give humans the platform to influence habits, in order to create a healthier earth and society.
Climate change is the world's number one most pressing issue. As a student attending Oakland Tech, individuals matter and therefore we must start small and get the populous to support the fight against climate change.
I believe that students should be educated on climate change because in order to begin to mitigate we must first educate people on the effects of climate change. By educating the youth, we set the future up for a cleaner and healthier environment because the youth will be more aware of their impact on the environment.
Environmental and Climate change will be the greatest problems of our generation, and education on these topics is key. Teachers need to be granted the correct resources, materials, and curriculum to prepare for the future accordingly.
I believe that proper education on the environment and climate change for students is crucial to the health and future of our society. By investing in educating the youth on the current declining state of our environment and human's devastating impact on it, we are investing in the future of all of us. The leaders of tomorrow need proper resources to eventually come up with sustainable solutions for mitigating climate change.
Climate change is a very serious matter and everyone should know about the cause and effects of it. Climate change affects every single person in the world. It is important to spread and raise awareness about climate change and educate people, especially the upcoming generation. I fully support this policy.
