With eCards-to-Copenhagen, students makes their voices heard. Students learn the facts about climate change through videos, ask-an-expert, and research questions on the secure eCards website. They use their insights to create an eCard with their own message and graphics. Their eCards get sent to the winners of the Get Reel on Climate Competition who will take them to Copenhagen. eCards-to-Copenhagen meets curriculum expectations in grade 9 and 10 Science, Geography, Language Arts and Media Literacy.

UNITE FOR CLIMATE

CONNECT YOUR CLASSROOM WITH OTHERS AROUND THE WORLD.

Connecting Classrooms consists of a structured, education-based project that enables students in both developing and industrialized countries to collaborate around topics of globally shared concern.

Participating classrooms will engage in a three-month program leading up to the Children’s Climate Forum Copenhagen in November and the Conference of the Parties in December 2009.

The results of this program will be communicated on the Unite for Climate Web site.

Unite for Climate is an initiative that envisions a global community of youth organizations and individuals working to address climate change.
