The Ministry of Eco Education | sustainable schools team really does get to talk to some incredible people, from pupils in reception all the way up to academic professors working in climate education. These short videos with experts are just our way of sharing best practice with busy teachers 🤗

My geography teacher was en pointe in the 80s & brought climate change into her schemes of work. Yet 2 people told me just this week that their geography departments still teach the pros & cons of global warming.
We've been conned 🙄
One for history & politics teachers 👇🏽

🌍Young people often incorrectly assume that others don’t care as much about protecting the environment as they do!

If your school is interested in taking part in research to help young people discover their shared values email [email protected] for more info.

Climate change is causing massive numbers of school closures. The #ClimateCrisis is an education crisis.

A fabulous teaching resource for learning about how glaciers melting in Antarctica lead to sea level rise in the Maldives. It's told through the eyes of a young person & encourages students to understand that the future is not yet written. Bravo 🙌🏾

Thanks Merlin Bird ID 🎵🎶🐦

We need lots of politicians like MP For Nature! Our natural world is in crisis yet the vast majority of children love protecting & learning about biodiversity. Education & raising awareness is only the start, it is the responsibility of government to make polluters pay.

Now the local elections results are in, bring on the general election! Hexham has been held by the Conservative Party, and generally with safe majorities, since 1924.
So this new polling projection makes me very happy 😁

Being part of the small but fantastically enthusiastic Ministry of Eco Education | sustainable schools team simply fills me with joy. Today I received a sustainably-sourced badge & lanyard tag that I will wear with utmost pride 😊

Schools are shut in Asia from lethal heat 🔥 & for flooding in Kenya 🌊
The #ClimateCrisis is an education crisis.
Meanwhile, the high court has ruled Britain’s climate action plan unlawful but the PM wants more investment in fossil fuels.
We are seriously failing young people.

Tomorrow, as the sun peeks over the horizon, the air will be filled with breath-taking bird song.

Set your alarm early and step quietly outdoors, or, cosy up with a cuppa by an open window...

...and experience the enchanting Dawn Chorus at its peak. 🌅
