Baker, Cambry; Clayton, Susan; Bragg, Eshana – Environmental Education Research, 2021
Children are worried about climate change.

We can expect climate change to alter the frequency, magnitude, timing, and location of many natural hazards. For example, heat waves are likely to become more frequent, and heavy downpours and flooding more common and more intense. Hurricanes will likely grow more dangerous, rising sea levels will mean more coastal flooding, and more-frequent and…
