Abstract
Back in 2011–2013, when the current version of the National Curriculum was being drawn up, the members of the Science Working Party were told by civil servants not to include climate change. One hopes that this would now be unthinkable. What should we be doing in school science, at primary and secondary level, given the increasing importance of anthropogenic climate change and extinctions? Is it enough to help build learners’ knowledge and understanding or should we be helping them take action?
