Answer 4

i didnt

Answer 5

Definitely yes, in the primary school where I work - our children have councils set up for recycling, organic plant growing, weather studies and the effects of the way we live on our planet.

It's best to start them young and they enjoy the responsibility of it.

Answer 6

Yes, I teach preschoolers at the local school and even I will be teaching them about the environment.  Climate change, probably not, I will be happy if they learn what climate is, LOL.  I believe in the older grades it is written into their curriculum.  

Answer 7

Very much so, and this continues through till gcse level whan alot of the curriculum in geography and the sciences is based on environmental concerns

Answer 8

I'm certain they get it stuffed down their throats at every opportunity these days, all this green propaganda. Unfortunately they end up believing it.

The one thing they won't be hearing about is the Elephant in the Room: the fact that the human population is too large and is growing too fast and they, the kiddies, are part of the problem.
