    Interesting article came out today in the Australian Financial Review... A/Prof White has also been collaborating with climate-change educators from across Australia to curate data that leverages political leadership and the establishment of a national climate-change education strategy. “We consider our curriculum an important piece of policy,” A/Prof White explains. “We’re asking for additional policy to support climate change education because, with this in place, schools can then be empowered to undertake climate change education connecting to their local communities.”
