In this lesson, students explore an emerging climate career and create solutions to the problems of extreme heat in their local community.
Step 1 - Inquire: Students describe a time when they felt too hot and learn about a new job to address extreme heat in cities.
Step 2 - Investigate: Students develop a compelling question about Chief Heat Officers (CHOs), then read about and compare different global CHOs.
Step 3 - Inspire: Students imagine they are their school or community’s Chief Heat Officer, identify an issue, and create a solution.
