Abstract
The paper discussed the need to integrate Climate Change Education into the Social Studies curriculum at the basic education level. To achieve this, the concept of Climate Change Education, its effect on man and environment, and the need for its Education were discussed. Also discussed were the relationship between climate change education and Social Studies and possible areas where the tenets of climate education could be achieved via Social Studies curriculum content. The paper concludes that, creating the needed climate change awareness, which is the ‘‘Hallmark’’ of climate change education could be made possible via corresponding topics in Social Studies curriculum and hence, recommends that, effective and efficient integration of concepts, learning experiences of both subject matters (i.e climate change and social studies), is a sin quanon, if man’s survival problem is to be addressed.
