Abstract

This article outlines the Climate Literacy Capabilities and Knowledges (or CLICK) framework for climate literacy pedagogy. The framework includes four domains—Earth Care, Kinship Care, People Care, and Systems Care—and is modeled on the care-centric thinking central to the Indigenous Worldview and to other Earth stewardship efforts emerging today. The purpose of this article is to introduce CLICK as a conceptual tool to guide classroom practice.
