A group under the aegis of the Development of Educational Action Network (DEAN) has called for the use of innovative climate education design to fight climate change.

The Executive Director of the group, Semire Michael, who made the call on Wednesday during a press conference in Abuja, noted that there is no better tool to change the world than education.

According to Michael, innovative climate education design is the best short and long-term measure to fight climate change.

He said that the mandate of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (Paris Agreement), to which Nigeria is a signatory to, listed six areas that should be utilized to engage the public in climate change solutions; of which education is the first mechanism mentioned in article 6.

He maintained that in order to increase social responses to climate change, the IPCC reports have also endorsed climate education, adding that children should be taught about climate change as part of the core curriculum so they can recognize it as a fact that contributes to social, economic, and environmental instability in a society that is already at risk.
