Education for Sustainable Development – Interview with Greenpeace

In Italy the school subject “climate change” is to be introduced. Should that also happen in Germany? Why?

Katarina Roncevic: It is to be welcomed that the topic of climate change has found its way into schools and that active climate protection is also emerging from schools. It is important to us that sustainability is not outsourced into one subject, but rather is anchored as a guiding principle and cross-sectional topic not only through all subjects, but also in the model of the school. Climate change is an excellent opportunity to take it up in various subjects, including politics, geography, ethics, physics. Climate change is a global, diverse and complex topic that must certainly also be viewed from a global, multidimensional perspective. Don’t complex challenges also require complex solutions?
