Climate Resilience Education Provides Hope Through Action<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n

Students often report that climate change increases their anxiety and despair. Since 2016, NWF\u2019s climate education team, with support from NOAA, FEMA and other partners, have delivered an award-winning climate education and action program in New York City<\/a>. The Resilient Schools and Communities (RiSC) program increases understanding of climate change\u2019s scientific, environmental, and social dimensions and also cultivates students\u2019 hope for the future. One of the projects<\/a> resulted in students planting 50,000 beach grass plants to stabilize migrating dunes in Coney Island. <\/p>\n\n

RiSC has been adapted in the U.S. Virgin Islands, New Jersey, Texas, and Puerto Rico. With support from the Kettering Foundation in 2024, NWF published a RiSC Replication Toolkit to provide educators across the country with a roadmap to implement the program in their communities.<\/p>\n\n

Through support from Mutual of Omaha\u2019s Wild Kingdom, NWF provided seven grants<\/a> to colleges and universities that showcase and fund innovative and solutions-based programs that help protect threatened and endangered wildlife, including the Northern long-eared bat, Hine\u2019s emerald dragonfly, the gopher tortoise, and their habitats. The schools are: Bellevue College in Washington state; Joliet Junior College in Illinois; Roanoke College in Virginia; University of Montana; University of Nebraska Omaha; University of West Alabama; and the University of Wisconsin \u2013 Eau Claire.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

The California region\u2019s flagship project, the Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing, which will be the largest of its kind in the world once completed, saw major progress<\/a> in the summer of 2024 with the installation of 82 girders and the completion of the bridge structure over the 101 Freeway.\u00a0\u00a0The Federation also helped to found and launch California Wildlife Reconnected<\/a>, a collaboration with the Governor of California, CalTrans, and the California Natural Resources Agency, and hosted the Connections in Conservation connectivity workshop in partnership with officials from Florida and Texas.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n
