The importance of education to carbon management

摘要

It is well-established in principle that the ESD has a vital role in terms of transitioning to a green economy. There are signs that the education and business sectors are - perhaps belatedly - recognizing the entrepreneurial opportunities available via responsible low-carbon technologies and practices as well as taking steps to address their environmental impacts. However, we must place high priority on equipping our whole society with a basic understanding of core scientific and mathematical skills if we are develop the behavioral and technological changes essential to a sustainable low-carbon economy.
