Climate change education is critical to promote climate action. Unfortunately, in the United States limited, with formal instruction typically only offered science classes. Both students and teachers are pushing for interdisciplinary, standards-aligned that not describes behind but also sustainable solutions addressing it. Yet, many feel unprepared teach about lack effective resources do so. In this article, we share practical recommendations educators using inquiry- place-based approaches....
Much of the world's biodiversity is held within tropical rainforests, which are increasingly fragmented by agricultural practices. In these threatened landscapes, there many organisms that acquire chemical defenses from their diet and therefore intimately connected with local food webs. Poison frogs (Family Dendrobatidae) one such example, as they alkaloid-based leaf litter ants mites. It currently unknown how habitat fragmentation impacts defense across trophic levels, arthropods to frogs....
