Thematic Climate Project for TXESS This four-day workshop focuses on the following key themes of climate science literacy: understanding the essential principles of Earth’s climate system knowing how to assess scientifically credible information about climate communicating about climate and climate change in a meaningful way making informed and responsible decisions with regard to actions that may affect climate Activities designed in this workshop will address the seven essential principles of climate science and are supported by the fundamental concepts underlying the National Science Education Standards (NSES) and the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) Benchmarks for Science Literacy. Those principles are: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) The Sun is the primary source of energy for Earth’s climate system Climate is regulated by complex interactions among components of the Earth system Life on Earth depends upon, is shaped by, and affects climate Climate varies over space and time through both natural and man-made processes Our understanding of the climate system is improved through observations, theoretical studies, and modeling Human activities are impacting the climate system Climate change will have consequences for the Earth system and human lives TEKS 6, A-E Environmental Systems TEKS 15, A-E Earth and Space TEKS 4, A-C Aquatic Science 8th Grade Science 10, A-C
