  "World Climate Change Survey": results available

Universities all over the world are not doing enough in order to help
society to cope with the challenges posed by climate change. This is one of
the findings of the "World Climate Change Survey", a research initiative
aimed at identifying the general level of awareness of and needs of
university students about climate change in university
programmes worldwide. Undertaken by the Hamburg University of Applied
Sciences in Germany as part of the International Climate Change Information
Programme (ICCIP - http://www.iccip.net)
the survey was targeted to university students so that first-hand
information on current practice could be gathered and reality-based
suggestions could be made to address any identified problems or needs.
The results of the survey are presented as the first chapter of the
newly-launched book "Universities and Climate Change" published by Springer.

The survey also points out a number of information and communication needs
that exist and that should be met in order to allow a better integration of
climate-related issues in the university curriculum across
the world. Details on the survey and the results gathered can be seen at:
