Grateful to be involved with the UNICEF Leading Minds Climate Education Fellowship and to learn from young climate leaders shaping the future of climate education. As someone who collected coins for UNICEF as a child and once imagined working in service of children and the planet, this feels like a hashtag#FullCircleMoment. A meaningful opportunity and a reminder of how important it is to support young people in caring for the world they’ll inherit. hashtag#LeadingMinds hashtag#ClimateEducation hashtag#YouthLeadership hashtag#IntergenerationalGovernance hashtag#Intergeneration hashtag#Changemakers UNICEF Innocenti @unicefinnocenti.bsky.social

Tried to hibernate. Failed. THIS IS NOT A SLEEPY BEAR BOOK launches TOMORROW! Set three alarms just in case... This is no time to sleep! ⏰⏰⏰ Huge shoutout to my super-talented editor, @briangehrlein.bsky.social Full #BookReview: https://andreakoehlejones.com/2025/11/10/book-review-by-childrens-author-andrea-koehle-jones/ #ThisIsNotASleepyBearBook #BookLaunch “Written with wit, warmth, and hilarious charm, Brian’s words pair perfectly with Jennifer’s calming and grounding earth-toned art. She beautifully balances the quiet hush of the woods with the joyful, party-fueled chaos inside Bear’s den. Together, they offer something especially meaningful for children growing up in a digital world—a gentle invitation to slow down, look closely, and feel the laughter and warmth of the forest. Gehrlein and Harney create pure read-aloud magic—perfect for bedtime, storytime, or any moment that calls for laughter.” — Andrea Koehle Jones, Children’s Book Author and Environmental Education Advocate

#UNOC3 #BecauseOurPlanetIsBlue #UNOceanConference, "If we destroy our oceans, we steal our children’s future. Taking meaningful steps to protect marine ecosystems isn’t a choice—it’s a promise we must keep to every child who deserves to inherit a living, breathing planet," said Andrea Koehle Jones, Founder of The ChariTree Foundation, Canada's national children's environmental education organization based on a tiny island off the coast of Vancouver. “If we destroy oceans, we steal our children’s future,” said Andrea Koehle Jones. “Protecting marine ecosystems is a promise we owe every child.” The #UNOceanConference has ended, but the ocean is still calling. If there's any doubt that urgent action is needed, watch Ocean with #DavidAttenborough.

Environmental education fosters critical thinking, skill building and literacy while inspiring young readers to actively engage with their communities. “Reading books that introduce children to the wonders of nature is an act of hope. Kids need fun and inspiring fiction and nonfiction books with engaging environmental education elements now more than ever.” — Andrea Koehle Jones, children's environmental education advocate, author, and United Nations Climate Observer. #EnvironmentalEducation #querying #kidlit #blueskybooks #books #booksky #authors #publishers #climate #biodiversity #Edusky #nonfiction #STEMbooks #Kidlit
