Climate Kids Traveling Trunks provide all the resources you need to teach climate science in the classroom. Which Traveling Trunk will you try?
climate science &
atmospheric chemistry
This trunk brings to life aerosols - one of the most poorly understood components of Earth’s atmosphere - and their impact on our lives and the changing climate, while inspiring and encouraging students to do their part to help protect the earth.
Carnivores, or animals that eat meat, are important links in the ecosystem as they help control prey populations. These activities will explore how climate change is impacting carnivores and what you can do to help.
Our global climate and the food that we eat everyday are inextricably linked. Explore our food system and the role it plays in our changing climate and alternatively, how climate change will impact our food, how it’s produced, transported, and more!
Oceans cover 71% of the world and are the basis of all life. These activities will explore the importance of marine ecosystems for the environment and how these ecosystems are being affected by climate change, ocean acidification, and ocean warming.
A pollinator is an animal that helps plants produce fruit or seeds. Learn more about pollinators, their important role in our lives, and how a changing climate and increased human activity will affect them and our food production.
In collaboration with our partners at the San Diego Natural History Museum and to better serve our community, the Climate Kids Traveling Trunks have become a part of the Nature to You Loan Program.
