Climate Change Education

Great news! Climate Change education is being introduced to Intermediate age children throughout schools in New Zealand.
I believe investing in children is the key to safeguarding the future.

Education Minister Chris Hipkins MP stated “the role science plays in understanding climate change, aids understanding of both the response to it and its impacts - globally, nationally and locally and explores opportunities to contribute to reducing and adapting to its impact on everyday life.”

Climate Change Minister James Shaw stated “our Zero Carbon legislation is an important framework for lasting change, but its success depends on all of us working every single day to take the ambitious action we need. Making this resource available means children will be able to learn about what we have done to the planet, its potential impacts and what they can do to help us solve the problem.”
