Closed Environmental Education

Closed on

If we are to promote environmental sustainability, more education is needed to increase awareness about climate change and general knowledge of the environment. The government should make geography a compulsory GCSE, and offer generous grants to schools who wish to begin teaching environmental/earth sciences (These can have big bearings on societies across the globe) as there is little of these in the overall science curriculum. It is vital that young people gain a understanding of the world we live in.
