Climate change education is a critical component of any plan for responding to the disruptions caused by a warming climate. Today���s students will spend the rest of their lives on a hotter planet, mainly owing to the actions ��� and inactions ��� of their elders, and they need to be prepared with appropriate knowledge and know-how. And yet climate change education in the United States is often far from adequate.

In the last five years, by my count, no fewer than 90 measures aimed at supporting climate change education have been introduced in the legislatures of 21 states across the country. I interviewed eight of their sponsors by phone or email, and here���s what I learned that might help you, as a citizen concerned about the climate crisis, to support the introduction, passage, and enactment of such legislation in your state.
