Only half of young people can define climate change
Original: Only half of young people can correctly define climate change
The World Economic Forum reports that just half of young people can correctly define climate change, pointing to significant gaps in climate literacy among the generation most affected by the crisis. The finding has drawn attention to how climate science is taught in schools and how well awareness campaigns actually translate into understanding.
Why now: The gap between youth concern about climate change and actual scientific understanding is striking and raises questions about education
