How does IHTEC and the ISPG program help to prevent climate change curriculum?
"IHTEC's ISPG program is an ideal program for teaching the effects of climate change which is a positive and practical. PDK Hawaii/ Hawaii School Peace Gardens are well underway with IHTEC's program. Some ideas for the ISPG program include:
1. All School Peace Gardens are a place of conflict resolution, which includes solving climate change crisis with hands on sustained action."
2. In an ISPG teachers can teach and plant their local Biodiversity; growing food for security of all, plant food for migrating species esp birds that live on the Hawaii islands; showcasing alternative energy use in the garden as well as in the school; monitoring sea level rise; studying species loss and dead zones in the oceans; removal of invasive species on land, work with NGO's that focus on Marine, Oceans, Coastal, Food etc.
3. Climate Change Curriculum needs to be taught at all levels of education, to ensure that it is achieved and continued until we have the planet sustainable again, this change must be achieved soon. Educators have taken much to long to achieve this educational change and IHTEC commends this initiative. Schools and educators have a huge role to play in the future of this planet.
4. IHTEC has realized that as climate change curriculum development is needed globally, we are suggesting that the International School Peace Gardens or something like it needs to set up a system of educational change, where everyone participates, at all levels of society. This includes public education.
