A People’s Curriculum for the Earth is a collection of articles, role plays, simulations, stories, poems, and graphics to help breathe life into teaching about the environmental crisis. The book features some of the best articles from Rethinking Schools magazine alongside classroom-friendly readings on climate change, energy, water, food, and pollution—as well as on people who are working to make things better. A People’s Curriculum for the Earth has the breadth and depth ofRethinking Globalization: Teaching for Justice in an Unjust World, one of the most popular books we’ve published. At a time when it’s becoming increasingly obvious that life on Earth is at risk, here is a resource that helps students see what’s wrong and imagine solutions. Praise for A People's Curriculum for the Earth "To really confront the climate crisis, we need to think differently, build differently, and teach differently. A People’s Curriculum for the Earth is an educator’s toolkit for our times." — Naomi Klein, author of The Shock Doctrine and This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs. the Climate "This volume is a marvelous example of justice in ALL facets of our lives—civil, social, educational, economic, and yes, environmental. Bravo to the Rethinking Schools team for pulling this collection together and making us think more holistically about what we mean when we talk about justice." — Gloria Ladson-Billings, Kellner Family Chair in Urban Education, University of Wisconsin-Madison "Bigelow and Swinehart have created a critical resource for today’s young people about humanity’s responsibility for the Earth. This book can engender the shift in perspective so needed at this point on the clock of the universe." — Gregory Smith, Professor of Education, Lewis & Clark College, co-author with David Sobel of Place- and Community-based Education in Schools

Why are so many American children learning so much misinformation about climate change? Investigative reporter Katie Worth reviewed scores of textbooks, built a 50-state database, and traveled to a dozen communities to talk to children and teachers about what is being taught, and found a red-blue divide in climate education. More than one-third of young adults believe that climate change is not man-made, and science teachers who teach global warming are being contradicted by history teachers who tell children not to worry about it. Who has tried to influence what children learn, and how successful have they been? Worth connects the dots to find out how oil corporations, state legislatures, school boards, and textbook publishers sow uncertainty, confusion, and distrust about climate science. A thoroughly researched, eye-opening look at how some states do not want children to learn the facts about climate change.

This report was prepared as part of an initiative led by the Minnesota Office of School Trust Lands to develop a "Fuels for Schools" type program in Minnesota for systematically targeting and converting schools and public purpose facilities to modern woodchip heating systems as a strategy to provide revenue to STL, improve forest health through good management, and enable greater financial independence for public schools in Minnesota

To reduce the risk of catastrophic fires, the USDA Forest Service and its partners are developing practical, economic uses for forest thinnings from National Forests and state and private lands in western states. Because mechanical thinning is costly, developing markets for removed wood as fuel for community energy applications is one way to support the economics of forest management while saving money for communities. By installing a wood heating system in the public schools in Darby, Montana, the Fuels for Schools Program is demonstrating the potential of putting low quality wood residues to practical use in a rural forest based community. The wood-fired heating system installed in Darby Schools replaced three separate oil-fired systems and saved the school district $24,500 of total fuel costs for the 2003-2004 year. Because of higher fuel oil prices, total fuel cost savings increased to $61,500 in the 2004-2005 heating season. Heating fuel costs were reduced from $0.63 per ft2 per year (last full oil heating season) to $0.36 and $0.35 per ft2 per year for the 2003-04 and 2004-05 heating seasons. Adjusting for heating degree days (HDD) for the respective heating seasons, the corresponding seasonal fuel costs in $/thousand ft2/HDD were reduced from 0.068 in 2002-2003 to 0.040, and to 0.040 in the 2003-2004 and 2004-2005 heating seasons, respectively. In an analysis to show actual costs for a school, we found a payback period of 9.8 years based on 2004-2005 heating fuel values. The project life was for 20 years, and a desired discount rate of 8.0% was specified for determining the before tax net present value.
