Rejected petition For Environmental awareness to be made compulsory and a module within Schools

Rejected on 24 March 2020

For all schools to apply a core module from early years on the Environment encouraging awareness and action. It can be a fundamental initiative which encourages young people to engage in their environment by being educated on climate change fit for each school year.

Environmental education is essential to ensure our future generations apply the measures required to preserve our environment. Bringing nature to the classroom is imperative to highlight to school children (and parents indirectly) the need for change. Environmental awareness and nature should be on a par with key classes in all schools. It is essential that children grow up with a great understanding, education in current issues and knowledge on what actions to take to protect earth.
