Education
Ethics education is the path to climate justice.
With the support of the National
Science Foundation and the Penn
State Institutes of Energy and the Environment, the Rock Ethics
Institute is working with ethicists, economists, and leading climate
scientists to bring ethics and climate research together in the classroom.
Through this collaborative effort we aim to: (1) develop pedagogical
strategies for incorporating ethical issues within climate science curriculum,
and (2) foreground the ethical dimensions of climate change within ethics
curriculum.
The Rock Ethics Institute is also collaborating with various individuals
and organizations to produce a variety of new media projects dedicated
to formal and informal climate science and ethics education. Working
with WPSU (the local PBS affiliate), the Institute produced a short
educational
film and public
forum talk on issues of climate science and climate justice. We
invite you to check back often, as we are continually adding podcasts
and videos of events to our growing media archive.
