Climate Change: From Sea Floor to Sea Food
Climate change affects humans and wildlife alike but in different ways. Warming oceans are causing fish populations to shift and thus changing food availability for both humans and birds. Explore these concepts and the work of scientists in the field in this CTLE workshop in-person at the Bronx Zoo. Meet zoo animals, engage in hands-on activities, and take away resources to use in the classroom.
Location: Bronx Zoo (in-person)
Date and Time: November 2, 2021 (Election Day), 8:30am-3:30pm
