<p><span>Climate Change Education: Reimagining the Future with Alternative Forms of Storytelling</span><span> offers innovative approaches to teaching about climate change through storytelling forms that appeal to today’s students—climate fiction and protest poetry, fiction and documentary films, video games and social media. The stories are used as exemplars, from exploring space debris to urban design planning to fast fashion, and they provide entry points for investigating particular aspects of climate science, including the local and global impacts of a warming planet. Each chapter provides analyses and strategies for fostering climate (and space) literacy through knowledge, empathy, and agency. Contributors from around the world encourage educators to answer students’ calls for comprehensive K–12 climate education by aligning pedagogy with real-world challenges in order to prepare students who understand the myriad injustices of the climate crisis and feel empowered to confront them. They share their own stories and urge educators to join the growing, hopeful movement for action, classroom by classroom.</span></p>
<p><span>This collection offers innovative approaches to using popular forms of storytelling as a lens for teaching about climate change. Contributors share their classroom experiences and guidance about how to engage students in productive conversations about the future with empathy and agency.</span></p>
