CLIMATE ACTION
Keep Cool inspires kids to become climate action superheroes and change their families’ energy and transportation habits!
6 weekly modules about an hour each in the classroom combined with at-home superhero missions cover a range of climate action topics, including:
The Climate Conundrum (intro)
Operation Darkroom (energy)
Operation Shower Power (energy & heat)
Operation Keep Car Cool (green driving)
Operation Go Car Free (active transportation)
Keep Cool (celebration!)
Real-world Impact
Kids are leading measurable change in their families, with over 50% of families reporting driving and idling less, and over 70% saving energy at home.

Also available en francais!
Thanks to the kind support of the BC Francophone Affairs Program, we have developed a French version of the program, Restez Cool, that can be used in French Immersion and francophone schools. Learn more.
Curriculum links for Restez Cool are now available for British Columbia, with other provinces coming soon!
