Planet Science are keen for input into their Cosmic Comics initiative. The closing date for comments is the 1st Dec. I've mentioned comics a fair amount in my blog through the use of Comic Life and I recently bought a lovely book from TK Maxx called "Classic Children's Comics" edited by Art Spiegelman* and Francoise Mouly. In the introduction there is a very sobering photo of the mass burning of comics in the US in 1949 because they "corrupt young minds".

If you don't subscribe to the Planet Science newsletter then I'd recommend it as useful links and ideas often appear.

* Art Spiegelman produced the fantastic graphic novel "Maus" which is well worth looking out for if don't know it. I can also recommend "In the Shadow of No Towers" by him.
National Climate Week
Although this is some way off, 4th-10th March 2013, it might be worthwhile subscribing to their emails and downloading the resources from their site. They are also keen for organisation to set up Swap Events to highlight awareness. How about setting up an event in your school?
