What the petition asks
We only have one planet and looking at the critical nature of the environment, it is important that children from Primary Start learning about the environment at a very young age.
We are 8 years old triplets who learned about recycling in school. We started litter picking at age 6. We volunteer at our local council and we have since inspired many children of our age. We are pleading for climate change to be a subject in school.
