Presentations
Conservation Corps Newfoundland and Labrador is pleased to offer free presentations on climate change to schools throughout Newfoundland and Labrador! The presentation, “Climate Change - A Local Focus on a Global Issue", is available until the end of the current (2011-2012) school year!
The presentation, which is appropriate for all grade levels, offers opportunities for discussion while students are given background on the science of climate change and are offered predictions of local impacts. Links are drawn between individual actions and global effects and students (and teachers!) are encouraged to make environmentally friendly choices in their day-to-day lives.
Teachers may request a presentation by emailing Krista Perry at kperry@ccnl.ca or by calling 709-729-7279.
