Also what are we actually doing about educating the next generation on this? we teach it in school but then what? #BackClimateAction

@DECCgovuk I like the 2050 calculator. Seems the future is going to require a lot of HIGH EFFORT to get to those levels though...Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@DECCgovuk@c_gibson85 I have found@EcoSchools powerful for this esp in primary schools where climate change is not in curriculum -
@CLSDorset@DECCgovuk@c_gibson85 The national curriculum must teach children about sustainability and climate change#BackClimateAction -
@EcoSchools@CLSDorset@DECCgovuk It has to start from early ages and be supported post school ages by the government. -
@c_gibson85@CLSDorset@DECCgovuk Absolutely. We want sustainability skills embedded throughout the learning and apprenticeship process. -
@EcoSchools@CLSDorset@DECCgovuk the only way true change will happen, if we show that it is the norm through a childrs formative years

@DECCgovuk@c_gibson85 i'll be 98 years old then. -
@gpmalpas@DECCgovuk I'd be 66 - I think... -
@c_gibson85@DECCgovuk and no doubt having to wait 10 years for your State Pension! -
@gpmalpas@DECCgovuk if we are all honest I won't be waiting that long because 1) I will have left teaching or 2) will have died on the job. -
@c_gibson85@DECCgovuk is teaching that tough?

@DECCgovuk@c_gibson85 @AbundanceGen encourages anyone to invest in solar on schools, social using etc > £5. Learn by doing. Capital at risk -
@oikonomics@DECCgovuk @AbundanceGen is that enough when there is such conflicting stories about it in the press though?
