Climate change affects every part of life, from food and water security to jobs, health, and safety. As extreme weather and rising temperatures put vulnerable communities at greater risk, young people need the tools and knowledge to understand what’s happening and how to respond.

Climate education isn’t just about science. It teaches critical thinking, problem-solving, and leadership. It empowers students to protect their communities, innovate new solutions, build greener careers, and make informed decisions that support a safer future.

Yet many schools around the world don’t have the resources, training, or curriculum to teach climate action effectively. This leaves millions of young people without the information they need to navigate the realities of a changing world.

Your message can help show why climate education must be included in national curricula, supported by teachers, and accessible to every student, no matter where they live. When enough people speak up, leaders pay attention.

Share why climate education matters to you, and help us champion a future where all students have the knowledge and skills to build thriving, resilient communities.
