Awakening to the Climate Crisis: A Call to Action
Marianne Larned
Childhood Education, v99 n6 p36-41 2023
The climate crisis raging around the world challenges each person to do whatever they can to help their children, their communities, and the planet. Educators have an opportunity to respond in a thoughtful, empathic, action-oriented way. In this article, the author discusses climate education and how educators can help students understand that their everyday actions affect those in other countries, invite students to empathize with migrant children who are disproportionally affected by the climate crisis, and empower students to take action to address the climate crisis.
