Student Project Work

Students were encouraged to read the Blue Lake Rancheria Climate Adaptation Plan (CAP) and compare the Tribe’s document to the EPA’s work addressing climate change impacts on the most vulnerable communities as published in the EPA’s official Climate Change Adaptation plan. Students also researched other Tribes’ CAPs, then did a compare and contrast study between the researched documents. Students then prepared observations and suggestions which helped inform their presentations for the Success in Both Worlds “Balance the Beauty: Indigenous Knowledge to Mitigate Climate Change” conference which they have been planning since the start of the 2022-2023 school year.

Student preparation work and presentations are posted below:
