Dear Colleague
On behalf of The Coastal Areas Climate Change Education Partnership (CACCE), we invite you to submit a topic for a workshop and/or poster session to participate in the upcoming Climate Change Symposium and Showcase for educators on Nov.7 in Tampa, FL.
Funded by a grant from the National Science Foundation, The CACCE Symposium and Showcase will bring together hundreds of educators and secondary school teachers working in science institutions from the region to facilitate discussions about innovative educational practices on climate change science, social impacts and adaptation in our communities.
Our keynote speaker Joe Levine, science educator and textbook author, will share his insight and knowledge regarding teaching, learning and preparing for the future. Levine has coauthored widely acclaimed biology textbooks for high school and college, and is known for his outreach efforts to improve public understanding of science through the media and exhibits at informal science institutions. You can read about Joe Levine at http://www.millerandlevine.com/
Call for workshops and posters.
Your organization can participate in the Symposium and Showcase by sharing information about your climate change education activities in a poster session and/or by presenting a workshop.

Our keynote speaker is Dr. Meg Lowman, Director, Nature Research Center, North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences, and Research Professor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences at North Carolina State University.
Nicknamed the “real-life Lorax” by National Geographic and “Einstein of the treetops” by Wall Street Journal, Meg Lowman pioneered the science of canopy ecology. For over 30 years, she has designed canopy access methods including hot-air balloons and walkways for treetop exploration to solve mysteries in the world’s forests, especially insect pests and ecosystem health. Meg is affectionately called the mother of canopy research as one of the first scientists to explore this eighth continent. She relentlessly works to map the canopy for biodiversity and to champion forest conservation around the world. Her international network and passion for science have led her into leadership roles where she seeks best practices to solve environmental challenges. Check out her website at www.canopymeg.com.
