The Community Environmental Council (CEC) is proud to announce a new certification course, UC Climate Stewards, that will empower locals to take clear action on climate change. The course, offered in coordination with the UC Division of Agriculture and the Natural Resources California Naturalist Program, is part of a statewide effort to build on-the-ground support to advance local and state climate goals.
Led by CEC’s Director of Outreach and Education Kathi King, the course gives participants a deeper understanding of the general psychology and science behind climate change and our individual response to climate impacts. Topics will include earth systems, energy, climate communication, and community service.
The 40+ hour curriculum is currently 100% virtual and includes online modules, presentations, peer-to-peer discussion, small group activities, hands-on and inquiry-based activities, and experiential learning over a six-week period. Participants will also gain insight into how they can take part in the transformative work CEC and other groups are doing on the Central Coast to address and alleviate climate impacts.
