How do you know?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are a myriad of views on how much of a problem climate change is and what the solutions are. Many governments in 2022 have opted for net zero by 2050, some environmental groups have lobbied for a more aggressive approach, aiming to end carbon emissions by 2030 and yet others have argued that nuclear power should replace fossil fuels. There are many other views too but I will not list them all here, if that is even possible. So for students in I&amp;S, who and what should you believe? We have studied OPVL in previous grades and in Grade 10 we will focus on how we learn about climate change. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What did Antonio Guterres say about climate change?
