The stakes for our planet have never been higher.  The world is warming,
sea levels are rising, and the impacts of climate change are occurring
faster and stronger than originally predicted.  It is a global crisis,
requiring solutions at every scale across every sector. Sign up for IB
Environmental Systems and Societies, and address climate change not as an
inevitability but an invitation to build, innovate, and effect change.

**Non-IB students may sign up for this class.
