What do young people want to know about climate change?
Students submitted questions to our project that range from the global to the local. Key themes in their questions included:

who is responsible?
how urgent is action?
how do we adapt and care for the planet and its future inhabitants?
why aren’t politicians listening?

Read more about the project on The Conversation:

University experts are well placed to equip students with holistic climate knowledge and help teachers cover a subject that’s neglected by the Australian Curriculum.
