Abstract: Students of the 2020s know: Climate change is real, climate change is here, and climate change is intensifying. But today's climate justice educators face new curricular dragons to slay - a powerful narrative of inevitability and the despair and resignation that is its logical outcome. The Climate Crisis Has a History. When it comes to the climate crisis the problem is not just one of curatorial emphasis, but of erasure - there are no climate change timelines at all.
