Poll: Should learning about climate change be part of the school curriculum?

Stacey Reporter from Stuff

Climate change is the most critical issue of the moment, and has been described by our prime minister as her generation's "nuclear-free moment". Its impacts, regardless of your views on it, are only going to get greater.

Yet it is not part of our school curriculum.

Climate change is the most critical issue of the moment, and has been described by our prime minister as her generation's "nuclear-free moment". Its impacts, regardless of your views on it, are only going to get greater.

Yet it is not part of our school curriculum.

I'm going to start a podcast but also collect views for a website. I'm looking for people to interview, either face-to-face or via Skype. The starting question is: "Would You Move To Planet Earth?". There would have to be reasons why you need to leave your home planet now but the idea is to explore your thoughts about where our planet is now and where it might be heading. Are concerns hoaxes, critical or somewhere in between? I won't steer you with my views - it's your perspective that I want. You can contact me at mark.findlayrd@gmail.com. I promise to be patient, polite and appreciative, all rolled into one!
