WASHINGTON<\/span>, Aug. 8, 2024<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — EARTHDAY.ORG<\/a>, (EDO), the global leader in Earth Day advocacy, activated by over one billion people worldwide on April 22<\/span>, recognizes President Luiz In\u00e1cio Lula da Silva<\/span> of Brazil<\/span> for supporting climate education as a critical tool in dealing with the climate crisis.<\/p>\n

President Lula da Silva<\/span> recently sanctioned guarantees that climate change and the protection of biodiversity will be recognized in Brazil’s<\/span> National Environmental Education Policy (PNEA). The measure was signed into law on at an event at Pal\u00e1cio do Planalto, in Bras\u00edlia (DF).<\/p>\n

“EARTHDAY.ORG is delighted with another win on climate education. We have been the global driving force behind promoting the importance of teaching climate education for decades,” said Kathleen Rogers<\/span>, President, EDO. “Our tireless work has ignited global interest, and Brazil<\/span> has heard our call by putting climate education onto their school curriculum. Where Brazil<\/span> goes, we know other nations will follow.”<\/p>\n

“Educating for the environment is a task of this century. Without this, we will continue to believe that it is possible to live in opposition to ecology,” stated Minister Marina Silva<\/span>, Brazil’s<\/span> Minister of the Environment and Climate Change (Source President sanctions law that reinforces education on climate change and biodiversity<\/a>)<\/p>\n

This is not the first time that Brazil<\/span> has elevated climate education on the world stage. In August 2023<\/span> at the\u00a0Amazon Presidential Summit<\/a> in Bel\u00e9m do Par\u00e1,\u00a0Brazil<\/span> emphasized the importance of environmental education<\/a>. EARTHDAY.ORG was honored to be a part of the NGO coalition advocating for climate education at the Amazon Summit. Our office for Latin America<\/span>, based in Brazil<\/span>, continues to work for universal climate education across the region.<\/p>\n

“Climate education gives students critically important skills that will help power the global economy,” says Bryce Coon<\/span>, Director Climate Education Initiatives, EDO. “Not just in the future but right now. Our recent report, Climate Education Vs. The Climate Crisis<\/a>\u00a0lays out what an important role teaching this subject will play in creating a climate-ready workforce.”<\/p>\n

“As the regional lead for EARTHDAY.ORG (EDO), is it truly fulfilling to see our work pay off and once again we are proud that Brazil<\/span> is taking the lead across Latin American,” says Rodolfo Beltran<\/span>, Regional Director for South America<\/span> at EARTHDAY.ORG. “We will continue to robustly promote climate education, with the goal of ensuring it is included in every K\u201312 school curriculum worldwide.”<\/p>\n

“We want to see climate education on every country’s Nationally Determined Contribution, (NDC),” said Bryce Coon<\/span>, Director Education Initiatives, EDO. “Which is why we wrote an\u00a0NDC Guide<\/a>. We are committed to finishing the job we started nearly a decade ago to achieve this.”<\/p>\n

EARTHDAY.ORG<\/a>\u00a0fully recognizes Brazil’s<\/span> on-going commitment to environmental protection, including a 40% reduction in Amazon deforestation and the expansion of renewable energy sources, which now constitute 48% of Brazil’s<\/span> energy matrix. President Lula da Silva’s<\/span> climate leadership will be on full display as Brazil<\/span> prepares to host COP30<\/span> of the UNFCCC in BEL\u00c9M<\/a>\u00a0in 2025.<\/p>\n

“We need to remember that the cavalry isn’t coming.\u00a0We are the cavalry when it comes to coping with a rapidly changing climate. Climate education is a vitally important part of our arsenal and Brazil<\/span> understands that.” says Kathleen Rogers<\/span>, President, EDO<\/p>\n
