124: Climate Education for Kids with Planet Bonehead's Bobby Donohue

Grounded in Maine

This conversation with Bobby Donohue had me so fired up excited for the future!
Bobby has single handedly developed an outstanding educational platform for school kids to teach them about climate change in a positive way, so they can problem solve with creativity and hope, and not doom and gloom. He also developed a track just for teachers, to help kids understand some of the more complex topics! This program is now streaming into 86 countries and 1000 schools and counting!
Bobby has such a great energy for education, and has been motivated by considering his own children's future, and really, what better motivation is there? And I learned about the STEAM method of teaching/learning - Bobby's love for the arts is very apparent, and I'm so grateful he was here to share it. (We also had SO much fun!)
Here's his message he hopes to leave us all with, in his words: "Everyone can contribute to a more sustainable future, no matter their resources or background. By educating the next generation with optimism and practical tools, we empower them to take ownership of the planet’s future. Small, achievable actions—whether at home, in schools, or in the community—can collectively create meaningful change."
