    Good Climate News! Advocates celebrated Monday after a Boulder, Colorado judge rejected attempts by ExxonMobil and Suncor Energy subsidiaries to dismiss a landmark lawsuit that seeks damages for the harms the fossil fuel companies have inflicted on the climate and local communities.

    We're pleased to offer a teaching guide for Youth v Gov, the documentary about the Juliana v. United States lawsuit, in which 21 young people are similarly suing the US Federal government over climate change. These resources are great classroom tools for putting climate litigation news into context.

    Get your free guide from our library: https://journeysinfilm.org/product/youth-v-gov/

    Friends of mine in education want to join Mastodon, for education-focused accounts. (Yay!)

    I am looking for instances to recommend to them that:

    • Are a good home for a K12 (and sometimes K16) education account.
    • Have good moderation.
    • Stable instance, probably going to last for a while.
    • probably not a massive instance, medium-sized is better.

    I'm aware of https://mastodon.education/.

    If you have recs, please share. Thank you!

    It seems deeply wrong and ironic that, as an English Teacher, I find World Book Day one of the most awful days of the year in school - and yet...

    @YLee Yes and yes - and that all sounds super noble and admirable. In reality, it becomes an expensive competitive fancy dress comp where staff and students dress as entirely non-book related characters (films/superheroes etc.) and it does nothing to encourage a genuine love of reading. You want your child to read? Buy them a book! @bookstodon @edutooters
