CLEAN Climate Literacy and Energy Awareness Network

2010

“CLEAN's primary effort is to steward the collection of climate and energy science educational resources and to support a community of professionals committed to improving climate and energy literacy.

The three key components of the CLEAN project are:

1. The CLEAN Collection of Climate and Energy Science resources- high-quality, digital resources, including learning activities, visualizations, videos, and short demonstrations/experiments, geared toward educators of students in secondary through undergraduate levels.

2. Guidance in Teaching Climate and Energy Science; pages designed to help educators understand and be equipped to teach the big ideas in climate and energy science.

3. The CLEAN Network; a community of professionals committed to improving climate and energy literacy.” (About this project)
