Starting this semester, the University of California San Diego will require all students to complete a climate change course and demonstrate the ability to understand and address climate change. We should require any political leader taking office to do the same.

A knowledge of climate change is required of all candidates for a Bachelor’s degree who are admitted to UC San Diego as a first-time, first-year student in Fall 2024 or thereafter.

 
About the Jane Teranes Climate Change Education Requirement

The establishment of this new graduation requirement for incoming first-year students, beginning fall 2024, is designed to empower our students with the knowledge and skills needed to confront the urgent global challenge of climate change. UC San Diego has long been a leader in climate change research. The JTCCER builds upon the faculty’s commitment by expanding educational engagement with climate change across a range of disciplines and responds to the growing demand by undergraduates for climate-related courses and content. 
 
Starting with the first-year student cohort entering in fall 2024, candidates for the Bachelor’s degree will be required to complete a one-quarter course approved by the Academic Senate to fulfill the JTCCER.

Folks complain we’re not teaching the next generation “real world” knowledge they will need to live. Here’s a fantastic answer to that complaint.
