The Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment (CAPE) and For Our Kids would like to share Polluting Education: The Influence of Fossil Fuels on K-12 Education in Canada. This report reveals how industry-driven narratives shape young people’s understanding of energy and climate in ways that serve corporate interests rather than the public good. It calls for urgent action to remove fossil fuel industry influence from schools and implement comprehensive, science-based climate education across Canada.

If you would like to send a letter to the federal government, you can tell the government to support fossil-free climate education here. We need all levels of government working together to ensure that young people receive an education that: 

• Cares for their feelings and well-being
• Provides safe spaces to express their concerns and worries about the future
• Builds a sense of efficacy
• Is accurate and rooted in science
• Is free from the fossil fuel industry’s bias-balanced approach to climate education
