Earth to Sky is coming to Eatonville, WA on March 12-14th, 2025!  

Save the date for this free, in-person, workshop where participants will explore how the Pacific Northwest is fertile ground for world-class climate interpretation and communication. 

This course is hosted by Earth to Sky, funded by NASA, and offered in partnership with the National Park Service, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Washington State Climate Office and the University of Washington. 

About the Course 

The dynamic natural and cultural landscape of the Pacific Northwest provides a rich backdrop for place-based interpreters to foster awareness, inspire hope, empower resilience, and communicate timely solutions to address climate change. This course seeks to nourish a community of practice that enhances the region’s capacity to access and share NASA climate science with its visitors. Participants will leave this course equipped with knowledge about cutting-edge climate science and a plan for bringing the climate story to their visitors in engaging and inspiring ways. Pat JC
