Tietoa podcastista
Because climate change is not formally taught in New York City high schools, City Atlas started this podcast to connect high school students directly with experts to find out how they would design a high school curriculum for climate. Join students at Hunter College High School and Stuyvesant, two schools in New York City, on their journey to gain knowledge about climate change, a topic that is not taught enough to young students across the U.S.
