Adult Climate Literacy: Reaching the Unreached
Climate education efforts have focused heavily on schools, aiming to shape the next generation. But what about current generationsāthe adults who vote, consume, invest, and make decisions that shape climate outcomes today? Many adults finished their education before climate change was part of curricula. Others learned outdated information or absorbed misinformation. Reaching adults with accurate climate understanding may be as important as youth education, yet receives far less attention and resources.
