Iām Nita Seng, and I work as the Chief Education Officer at SubjectToClimate. I almost flunked out of elementary school, but I had a fifth-grade teacher, Mrs. Malevich, who believed in me and that changed everything. I owe so much to great teachers who have transcended what I believed to be impossible. So now I dedicate my career to supporting educators and the awe-inspiring work they do with our students to surmount what feels impossible in addressing climate change. Outside of work I get my head lost in philosophy books and my body twisted in yoga.
Students investigate methane emissions in agriculture and explore strategies for reducing them. They also research innovative solutions and climate-related careers focused on sustainability and methane reduction.
Inquire: Students analyze a case study about cow farming, methane emissions, and the impact on climate change.
Investigate: Students participate in a role-play and reflect on the leadership qualities and experience needed to put climate solutions into practice.
Inspire: Students select either an agricultural or entrepreneurial pathway to develop a comprehensive research-based project on climate solutions and then explore climate-related careers of interest.
