Climate Change Education Act

This bill establishes a Climate Change Education Program within the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to increase climate literacy across the United States through formal and nonformal learning opportunities for all ages. The program will award grants to state and local educational agencies, universities, professional associations, and youth organizations to develop climate education curricula, train educators, and support community-based climate action projects. Funding allocations prioritize environmental justice communities and require that grants to local schools provide at least $1 million annually if total funding exceeds $5 million. The bill authorizes $50 million per year from 2027 through 2032 to carry out these educational initiatives and requires the NOAA Administrator to submit annual reports to Congress on program effectiveness.
