Climate change has now entered the classroom, and schools are recognising the need to prepare students for climate change. Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) runs a green school programme, where students from participating schools conduct environmental audits of energy and water consumption. Over 6,000 schools are enrolled in the CSE programme.
