Review Quotes: Climate Change Education is more than an emergency call. It is a direct challenge - an all-hands-on-deck strategy - for scientists, policymakers, educators, and the broader community to mobilize forces in response to the climate crisis. Our survival depends on our capacity to work together to center ecological literacy and justice across the curriculum, while transforming cultures and institutions toward more sustainable futures.--Iveta Silova, Professor and Associate Dean of Global Engagement, Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College at Arizona State University
