Addressing global climate change is a monumental battle that can only be fought by the leaders of tomorrow, but future leaders are molded through education and shaped by the leaders of today. While the pivotal role of education in spreading awareness of climate change is one universally espoused, equally universal is the recognition that current education efforts are falling woefully short. Promoting Climate Change Awareness through Environmental Education stems the rising tide of shortcomings in environmental education by plugging a known gap in current research and opening a dialogue for the future. Targeting an audience of young scholars, academics, researchers, and policymakers, this volume provides a much needed dam of empirical evidence regarding the role of youth education in addressing one of the greatest challenges of our age. This timely publication focuses on topics such as building resilience to climate change, green learning spaces, gender issues and concerns for developing countries, and the impact of young adults on the future of environmental sustainability.
People have no excuse to write using incorrect grammar-especially if their writing will be seen by the public. A little proofreading goes a long way. For Carolyn Stevenson Silicato, a retired elementary school teacher, this carelessness has always been a pet peeve. In fact, it became part of a tradition in the district where she taught: anyone spotting a misspelling in a public place would be sure to tell her about it. Those collected missteps form the genesis for More than 100 Signs That Prove Nobody's Purrfect!. She began taking pictures of misspellings that she saw along the roadways. After she retired from teaching, she carried her camera with her all of time and quickly gathered over one hundred pictures of highway misspellings. She divides them into the types of grammatical mistakes that people frequently make, from "Which Vowel Was That?" to "Wrong Words"-thus inviting readers and students to detect the errors in each of the one hundred signs. Enjoy this completely interactive, learning experience, and remember that nobody's perfect!
