Positive news, it would seem, on the national climate\u00a0curriculum change [sic<\/em>]\u00a0front. \u00a0I'm grateful to NAEE's Sarah Simmons for the alert to the Guardian<\/a> on Friday which reported:<\/p>\n

Michael Gove abandons plans to drop climate change from curriculum: climate change will stay on geography syllabus after lobbying from energy secretary Ed Davey.<\/em><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But how curious of the Guardian to give all the credit to Ed Davy. \u00a0It has been consistent about this, as I noted back in May<\/a>, despite the huge range of organisations and individuals making citizenly interventions through petitions, letters to MPs (and Gove), newspaper articles, etc. \u00a0Ed Davey was in good company. \u00a0I hope he knows this.<\/p>\n

So with climate change seemingly now in both science and geography, all we need is for\u00a0geography\u00a0and\u00a0science teachers to work together for the benefit of learners' understandings. \u00a0That might well be the harder battle, but professional development focused on bringing both together, perhaps organised with<\/em> organisations of scientists and geographers, would be a good place to begin. \u00a0Who will do this?<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the CO2 levels keep rising.<\/p>\n
