The hardest part of our campaign to embed nature into the lives of ALL children is the lack of connection & understanding of what children learn whilst in #Nature. #ItsNotAllDenBuilding #MoreThanPondDipping thanks to @CharthamForest for Graphic

Sales of peat compost are destroying precious peatlands. Most retailers’ approach to the voluntary ban on peat sales has been woeful. The time for voluntary agreements is over. Please support our call for an immediate ban on peat-based products today! wtru.st/ban-peat-sales-now

New research from @_TeachTheFuture shows that 70% of teachers don't feel they've received adequate training to educate students about climate change. We need to fix this: teachthefuture.uk/petition

Sign the Petition: It's time to implement broad climate education

Our current education isn’t good enough. Students aren't being prepared to face the effects of climate change, or taught to understand the solutions. But we can change this.
