Editor's Notes
- ACE focal points prevalent in most of European Union, African Union, Latin America Huge gaps with United States, South Africa, Gulf States, India, China, Malaysia, Vietnam, South Korea, and Japan RCEs can work as great agents of dissemination in countries with ACE Focal Point RCEs can also work to push for creation of ACE focal point and to provide curriculum that is appropraite
- Note: All of these focal points are in Ministries or Institutes for the Environment – there is little connection between Ministries of Education and Ministries of Environment. Therefore, schools might not be getting material to teach on climate change, even when it is being developed within their countries for them
- Young and Future Generations Day will be the 1st week of COP 23 in Bonn, Germany (Secretariat, Fiji) Education Day will be the 2nd week of COP 23 in Bonn, Germany (Secretariat, Fiji)
