Placeholder

We encourage the City of Berkeley to include a strong science education component in its climate action plans, policies and programs. And,we encourage teachers, schools, science museums, parents and kids...
and UC Berkeley too... to join with the city, to support its leading, highly innovative work.
Further, we recommend that other cities and educational institutions study what Berkeley is doing:
Berkeley is providing wonderful examples: well worth following, joining with, and expanding upon.
