Making the Grade for Climate Education: I Learned about the Weather, but Not Climate Change. Pearson Global Learner Survey 2021
Pearson
Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of the times. Many feel powerless to reverse the damage to the planet. The complexities involved in achieving this are without historical precedent. To shift from a global economy that extracts and degrades to one that is reciprocal and sustainable, it must start with education. Pearson asked 5,000 people in five countries how much education they've had on climate change. The results are clear -- not enough. People are rushing to make up ground with more education and training for themselves to address the global effects. While many people told us their climate education included basic subjects like "the weather," there is an increasing need for deeper environmental knowledge -- especially with the expected growth in green jobs over the next 10 years. What was learned is presented in this report.
