Climate change and the school curriculum - new article & short survey

Written by Sam | 25 June 2021

“Climate change is not merely an issue, it is the ground we walk on and the air we breathe. It is the question of whether future possibilities for development, creativity and joy remain. How should schools respond?”

The science of climate change can be addressed through Geography and Science.
