HF 3557 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Climate literacy seal established, and report required.

HF 3557 establishes a voluntary "climate literacy seal" for Minnesota high school students who complete specific requirements related to climate education. To earn the seal, students must meet standard graduation requirements, take at least two approved climate literacy courses, and complete a final project focused on local climate issues in their community - such as a community initiative, research project, or hands-on activity. Participating schools must note the seal on student transcripts without charging fees and collaborate with local organizations to support the projects. The bill also requires a report on the program's implementation, aiming to recognize students' understanding of climate change and practical application of solutions in their communities.
