  • About this Project

    The new Climate Change, Wildlife and Wildlands Toolkit for Formal and Informal Educators is an updated and expanded version of the award-winning (2001 Public Relations Society of America Bronze Anvil Award  for Interactive Comunications and 2002 Telly Award) and very popular (over 40,000 kits distributed in all 51 states and territories and over a dozen countries across the world) Climate Change, Wildlife and Wildlands Toolkit for Teachers and Interpreters first published in 2001.

    The Toolkit profiles climate stewards in all 11 ecoregions. Here, students participate in the Baldwin County Grasses in Classes program to help grow native plants for wetland and dune restoration projects.
    The new kit is designed for classroom teachers and informal educators in parks, refuges, forest lands, nature centers, zoos, aquariums, science centers, etc., and is aimed at the middle school grade level.

  • Science Centric | News | Climate change driving Michigan mammals north

    • Some Michigan mammal species are rapidly expanding their ranges northward, apparently in response to climate change
    • Of the nine mammal species examined, four have established strongholds or increased in abundance, while five have declined. The increasing species - white-footed mice, southern flying squirrels, eastern chipmunks and common opossums - all are southern species, while the declining species - woodland deer mice, southern red-backed voles, northern flying squirrels, woodland jumping mice, and least chipmunks - are all northern species.
