SubjectToClimate (StC) is a nonprofit organization founded in 2019 dedicated to making climate change education accessible and effective for K-12 educators. The organization provides a free, easy-to-use online platform that connects educators across all grade levels and subjects with high-quality, teacher-designed lesson plans, curated resources, and professional development opportunities for teaching climate change. Their mission is to empower the next generation to take climate action by making climate education a meaningful and regular part of classroom learning.

The organization envisions a world where everyone feels empowered to address climate change and recognizes that climate action begins in the classroom. StC’s approach includes active collaboration with educators in resource curation and lesson plan development to ensure relevance and usability. Their platform also supports customized regional hubs to meet localized needs, expanding their educational reach.

SubjectToClimate emphasizes inclusivity through its mascot, Captain Climate, who is designed as an ageless, genderless, and raceless figure to inspire all students. Behind the scenes, their team consists of former and current teachers, scientists, and climate activists, supported by an advisory board and board of directors who are experts in climate and education fields.

The platform supports educators by providing free, vetted resources that increase the frequency and quality of climate change education in schools. They also respond to the gaps in current education by addressing the need for climate content outside of science subjects and making teaching resources readily available without cost.

Donations to SubjectToClimate directly empower educators by expanding resource availability, supporting professional development, and enabling the creation of new content. Overall, SubjectToClimate serves as a crucial connector and resource hub fostering climate literacy and climate action advocacy among young learners.
