At the Franklin School of Innovation, an EL charter school in Asheville, North Carolina, 9th grade students embarked on a learning expedition that had them learning about the causes and impacts of climate change, going out in the field to interview local professionals and experts from local businesses and organizations, and then creating podcasts to address the industries that affect and are affected by climate change. In this year's series of podcasts students also included a call-to-action component where their words will lead to real action steps in our communities.

Expedition Podcast
Being Local to WNC (Western North Carolina) we care deeply about our community and environment. Climate change is a large social issue, so we decided to research the topic of sustainable agriculture. Amy Boyd and Josua Arnold are professors at Warren Wilson College, they provided us with information and insight on this topic. In our podcast, we discuss farming, sustainable systems, livestock, and local vegetation; all of these things have been and will continue to be affected by climate change.
