Italian school students in every grade will be required to study climate change and sustainability, in an attempt to position the country as a world leader in environmental education.

From next year,

Education Minister Lorenzo Fioramonti, of the anti-establishment Five Star Movement, said all public schools will include about 33 hours a year in their curricula to study issues linked to climate change.

i_nivethathomas good job:

LeoDiCaprio That's right, DeCaprio, jam your pseudoscience down their throats. Anything to hide your jet-setting 'liberal' hypocrisy.

LeoDiCaprio Ql

LeoDiCaprio

LeoDiCaprio Yeah but probably to late

LeoDiCaprio This time, 🇮🇹 will take the cake🍰 - a world leader in environmental education🎊.

LeoDiCaprio You are my Great Pride Lenny❤

LeoDiCaprio Boring their bankrupt opinion means little

LeoDiCaprio That's great! In Brazil already has an education focused on environmental awareness.

Love you Leo forever 🤗😍

LeoDiCaprio 🌴🌏💯

earthalliance We need this in the U.S Education System.

LeoDiCaprio Italians derive from Troy. Of course they are leaders!

LeoDiCaprio Your fake news

LeoDiCaprio 👏👏👏👏. A tot el món s'hauria de fer i quan més aviat millor

LeoDiCaprio Fantastic well done to them , now we adults need to give them back a living 🌍 by voting out the End Of Days freaks in gov , uk, Australia, brazil, usa —- get these dirty climate disaster govs outof office then we have a chance

LeoDiCaprio May that become trendy and spread around the goble, hopefully! SchoolingEnvironmentalConcience Lets pray 4 it...

Fantastic news!

This should be one course

I think they should study science instead that would find solution to the climate emergency.

Are they going to learn that the sun and shifts in the tectonic plates are responsible for the vast majority of climate change and man is powerless to stop it?

That is awesome!!!

Big dick energy right there

The best food in the world and the best wine in the world, and now this? However will the other countries compete?

This information is free on the internet.

China and India should do this

Don't Trump supporters need this education more than anyone? They can't even think for themselves as they believe every lie Trump tells them.

🙄

Who needs math and comprehension skills when you can chain yourself to a pipeline?

It’s okay, but biased as climate change isn’t the biggest issue currently rather a global pandemic is the 1 concern. The world littraoly has no plan on this.

Well they do have the world in their hands🐘🦒🦘

I love the fact that Americans are talking about global warming as a controversial issue... I mean we are talking about the same people who believe in lizard people, that God wants them to have guns and believe that killing millions in the middle east was good for democracy

Hmmmm

Sounds like Groupthink indoctrination brainwashing.

They need to teach them that FUCKALL WILL STOP IT!!!

Maybe get the trash off the streets first? babysteps

America's schools don't even teach African American history; good job Italy.

Honestly everyone should be learning about it even if you aren’t in school since it’s such a problem for the whole world.

Always the first at crap

I'd would have thought that fiscal policy and finance should have been first as the country is a finical basket case

Good for them! Sad that the right is hell-bent on making our kids dumber.

Gli Italiani contuneuano dare alla civita’.🤷🏼‍♂️🍷

They should study ECONOMICS! THEIR MORON ELECTED OFFICIALS ARE RUNNING THAT BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY IN TO THE GROUND

Good it must around the world.. All schools and all students must be aware of what has happened..

So were they not teaching Earth Science and History before this or what?

Now if only China and India would follow suit, since they are the worst polluters on the planet.

That's great! Everyone else should follow suit.

Any science behind it or is it all propaganda & politics?!

The world needs a set of common climate change courses, simply due to a need to advance our use of fuel and respending of that fuel to inert status.

In Brazil it's part of the program for every grade since I was in kindergarten. I'm 23 years old. FINALLY

Bravo Italia 🇮🇹

Bravo

The way it should be

GovHowardDean do they also teach evolution?

I'll be going to Italy in June, so this is impressive news for sure! 🌎❤️

Wonderful! In Kenya,weather and Climate and Climatology are part of the educational Curriculum and syllabus! Very interesting to study! From tropical to montane to desert to tundra!

The net effect will be that the country won’t be a “world leader“ in anything. Not that it is now anyway.

A good teacher would already be talking and teaching climate. It is part of the curriculum

WhiteHouse realDonaldTrump NancyMace Is Eric Ciaramella the whistleblower Fake News?

Watch this

Makes sense ClimateChange

In India this is been teach in schools.

Proud to be Italian 😃.

CORRECTION: In an attempt to brainwash children.

So progressive, hope others follow suit

Great initiative

Dr. Shiva Ayyadurai, MIT PhD. Inventor of Email va_shiva An MIT PhD exposes who will profit from the “Climate Change” HOAX & why it was right that realDonaldTrump pulled out of the pollution-incentivizing Paris Accords.

Meanwhile in America you have an entire ilk of people who think it’s a hoax and rather than just trying to save the planet (in case ya know it might not be) they’d rather argue science. Sigh. I’m tired.

Italia ❤💯

ClimateScam

eric ciaramella

Visionary and forward thinking. If only the whole world could just adopt this strategy

cnn correction......... 'attempt to poison the country as a world leader in environmental taxation to keep the poor, poor and the rich,rich.'

About as useless as a liberal arts degree In about 12 years when the worst of what the skyscreamer predict doesn't come true I'll be the first in lane to point and laugh.

It’s a hoax created by the left and fake news media

Brainwashing - Jan Theuninck, 2018

Grande..!

Thank you, Greta!! 😍❤

FreeMattJones

Europe appears to be going ahead with managing the future, leaving the U.S. in the dust. I am ashamed to have to recognize that.

Population control is what we need

What a farce! ClimateChangeHoax

I feel like America is so backwards compared to other countries lmao. Sad!

But what about gender studies and LGBTQ+ sex Ed classes

Thats gud

DomenicFazioli And this from a country that uses plastic plates at every meal.

Everyone who thinks this is a bad idea is a troll and should delete their account

Glad I don’t live in Italy.

Surely emissions from other countries will never enter the Italian climate space

In other words, brainwashing

But isn’t the world going to end in 12 years according to Liberals? Why bother? 😂

American Students will be required to study counter arguments to climate change and how to market oxygen masks to Italy.

GretaThunberg to world leaders at the U.N. climate summit: “You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words”

You mean indoctrination

Love this initiative by the Italians

There’s a word for that. INDOCTRINATION

You mean brainwashed ........ don’t you? 🙄🤣

Let's save planet earth

I hope maybe they will teach students how sun activities govern climate change on earth during last 4.5 billion years

Sappiate che Leonardo DiCaprio combatte contro l'inquinamento climático fianco a fianco di Greta Thumberg. Nella foto è sempre Di Caprio che scende dal suo aereo privato per salire su una limousine. Morale: ricchi possono inquinare i poveri devono salvare il mondo.

While it goes bankrupt!

The US may have officially blown it’s chance to be a leader in green energy because we’re too busy securing the oil in the Middle East. And why? The only people benefitting from that decision are the rich oil tycoons. ClimateChange ClimateAction GreenNewDeal

Whether it’s true or not, there needs to be steps taken to EVENTUALLY not drastically get away from fossil fuels because they’ll eventually run out..so think what you will there needs to be change or it’s gonna be an awful mess when the pumps turn off!

You can see who graduated from trump university here! Science wouldn’t be allowed in our schools with batshit Betsy Demon in charge😉

Trump is killing the USA. . StopTrump realDonaldTrump

Great so italy can keep it's own climate clean from carbon emissions from Russia China Venezuela india Indonesia Brazil Mexico Nigeria middle east Pakistan...

Good for Italy!

Hope others will follow suit🌍🌍

Oh brother

BOOM

Wow...ours can't even name all the states.

KateWilliamsme In Australia, I am sure that environmental impacts and sustainability have been a compulsory strand in the Victorian and National curriculum for many years at both primary and secondary levels. NationalCurriculum Sustainability

why not Italy invented fascism

Climate change is fake news. What a waste of valuable time.

Right-winger Mateo Salvini and his party leave government, left-wingers take over once more, and what happens? LET THE INDOCTRINATION COMMENCE!

susinrp another reason to move to Italy🤷🏻‍♀️

Stupid

We at india have to make sure about the education 1st .... still a long way to go

Why not report what's going on in the United States?

*Brainwashing

In Africa we will be studying names of the young ones of cameleons and lizards

Globalism activated

those kids will have much better job opportunities than trump supporters learning jobs that will be automated soon

Let's see how the hiring rate of Italian students is in a few years.

Scam. Money grab.

Because they don’t have a brain dead cult named the Republican Party.

Mother Nature’s children 😊

Indoctrination

So cute

BernieSanders

Get them indoctrinated young.....

Alt. Headline: “Child/teenage suicide to increase in Italy to make “climate change” activists happy”.

❤️

That’s about as useless as a gender studies degree

More like position them to be indoctrinated.

jenniferbeals Doesn't help that Trump took us out of the Paris Climate Agreement.

study a hoax!!!

You misspelled “indoctrination”.

That's legit!

Climate changes have always happened! We had an ice age, dust bowl, droughts, too much rain & snow! But Al Gore decides to make more money selling a book about global warming! Climate change same thing-Hoax

SantitoroMike Surprised I haven't seen this yet

Here’s your environmental education. The Earth has been here for billions of years. Multiple ice ages. Continents have shifted. Seas have risen and fallen. Species come and go. Volcanoes erupt. Temperatures are always changing. Glaciers melt while others expand. Get used to it!!

Good for Italy The changing climate affects every person on Earth. The young people of our world will be dealing with the effects of climate change long after we are gone.

We have been doing this in Canada as well so I doubt it’s the first place. Even here in Conservative Saskatchewan we had the best climate education a report showed.

realDonaldTrump or our next President need to follow this excellent for students to learn and be aware of Environmental issues and Global Warming.

Hope it is comprehensive and not one sided.

Thank goodness someone cares.

How many of the doomsday prophecies will they be taught?

Close your borders and shut down the Human Trafficking Industry, aka all legal and illegal immigration. Not only is Migration fueling Human Population Growth and Overpopulation. Movement of these people pumps out tons of co2 while consuming valuable resources. Shut it down

manusetton

Poor bastards. Italy is so small, and they’re wasting time with this.

The sustainability of your people is significantly more important than your individual financial goals. The future is what is created by your actions today.

Good job. Just Do More

More important subjects and who determines what climate change study to teach Also aren't the kids more knowledgeable on this than adults anyway, teach the adults is far more important

Good = Science

Propaganda bs

amazing.
