Petition Make Climate Change education a compulsory aspect of the UK national curriculum.
Climate change is arguably the most complex problem ever faced by humanity and the consequences of inaction will be most felt by our children. The fact that this information is not delivered in our schools with urgency is unacceptable and we are letting all future generations down!
More details
How can we expect to encourage global collaboration and eco-innovation in the UK's future if our children are not even aware of this serious problem? Human induced climate change cannot be ignored any more. We are letting our children/country/planet down by not encouraging active debate on this issue in our schools.
