Young people's lives will be influenced by climate change and, in turn, climate change may itself be influenced by their future behaviour. Environmental education has thus to rise to the challenge of providing students with knowledge that will go beyond the simply factual and enable an understanding of the complexity of climate change. This paper…

At the same time, a…

Globally climate change (CC) is scarcely addressed in school curricula, and school graduates are mostly uneducated about climate change.
