Learn About Climate Change

Alabama Public Television offers up some of the best and most useful guides to help you teach your children. We can all admit that sometimes we need a little extra push to make a topic exciting. And, here is one for you that’s easy to find.
On October 13, television host and conservationist Jeff Corwin will host the National Park Foundation’s Electronic Field Trip to North Cascades National Park in Washington State. Field trips will air on Alabama Public Television at 9 AM and again at 12 Noon central time and each will last for 57 minutes. Both broadcasts will feature opportunities for viewers to call in questions to be answered live on the air.
The broadcasts, appropriate for grades 4-8, will focus on the planet’s changing climate. With its northerly location and high elevation, North Cascades National Park is already experiencing melting glaciers and the loss of species.
