A survey of 10,000 young people between the ages of 16 and 25 located in 10 countries across the globle (the UK, Finland, France, the US, Australia, Portugal, Brazil, India, the Philippines and Nigeria) show educators the extent of the concern that their students have for their future and the frustration they feel about the inactivity of people in power when it comes to taking real action now.
Young people were asked their views on the following statements:
- People have failed to care for the planet: 83% agreed globally.
- The future is frightening: 75% agreed globally.
- Governments are failing young people: 65% agreed globally.
- Governments can be trusted: 31% agreed globally.
Educator must understand that this is a critical issue that needs to be addressed. Not just by school counselling teams but by school leaders.
We must show that we care enough to take action now. By using Sptout to help your school to go carbon neutral you are taking that concrete action.
