Pedagogical seminar in English at B2+ level Climate Change Education WNP-PE-KANG-AKL
Warming of the Earth's climate system as a result of human activity and the accompanying effects are no longer in doubt. The effects of climate change are visible on a global scale. Reducing these unfavorable changes requires rapid social and economic changes. Transformations are necessary in almost all areas of life. To this end, it is important to conduct climate education that will make people aware of the need and urgency to change behaviors and habits, to give up inappropriate practices. Students will have the opportunity to learn about the causes of climate change, ways of adapting to change and its effects. Moreover, the legitimacy of implementing education to climate change will be shown.
