About Facing the Future Climate Change Challenge

Through a generous grant from Hewlett-Packard Company, Facing the Future has given 30 classroom sets of five HP Photosmart Digital Cameras to educators throughout the U.S. for their students to use in documenting climate change and positive actions youth have undertaken to reduce its impacts in their schools and communities. Teachers from across the hall, across town, or across the country are collaborating with each other to bring their students together in creating digital story collections of 20 photographs with captions that address one of two themes:

•Theme 1: Climate Change Connections in our Communities
Photos should capture elements of students’ communities that are linked to climate change.

•Theme 2: Taking Action to Affect Climate Change
Photos should capture positive actions students are taking to make a difference.

Grants recipients have received a set of five HP Photosmart Digital Cameras for their students to use in creating digital story collections as they study climate change using Facing the Future’s two-week curriculum units about climate change for middle school and high school, Climate Change: Connections and Solutions. Development of this curriculum has been made possible through the generous support of Hewlett-Packard Company.
