xperience illustrates that that school kids simply “get” climate change.

Slap Tomorrow last year took a group of nationally recognized climate activists into a Shepparton secondary school and the year 10 and 11 students appeared to innately understand the complications around climate change.

And now something similar, but much greater and expanded is happening in California.

Inside Climate News reports that “Climate Change Lands on Agenda of the PTA”.

It says: “School districts in California—and perhaps nationwide—will soon feel increased pressure from parents to teach climate science in their classrooms.

“The California State Parent Teacher Association, which represents nearly 1 million parents and educators, adopted a resolution this month to urge schools to prioritize climate curriculum and improve energy efficiency, as well as to lobby lawmakers to act on climate warming.”
