How should we speak with children about climate change?
with Dr. Elizabeth Bagley of Project Drawdown
on Sustainability Now! Sunday, September 15th, 2024
How should we speak with children about climate change? Should young children be taught about climate change, and how? During the Cold War, the existential threat of nuclear holocaust was always present but there was, at least, a chance that the missiles would not be launched. Climate change is also an existential threat but it is already happening. Join host Ronnie Lipschutz for a thoughtful conversation with Dr. Elizabeth Bagley, managing director of Project Drawdown, who has written and spoken about these questions. She holds joint Ph.D.s in environment & resources and educational psychology from the University of Wisconsin at Madison, where she studied how video games can encourage systems thinking about complex environmental topics.
