MOCO, Susana; VENTURA, José  and  MALHEIRO, Manuela. Climate change and environmental education: pedagogy tool to practice. GOT [online]. 2016, n.10, pp.233-240. ISSN 2182-1267.  https://doi.org/10.17127/got/2016.10.011.

Given the demonstrations of changes of the climate system, it is fundamental that all entities, including school, promote the understanding of the problems the world is facing today and acknowledge the individual responsibility and the importance of collective action in the exercise of a responsible citizenship. Education for Sustainable Development is imperative both in the syllabus of the first school years as well as in a lifelong learning perspective, in formal and informal teaching/learning situations. Educational games are a stimulating option and can be used in daily school life, on the basis of scientific accuracy of the topic. In this work we will focus on how by creating and applying an educational game, you can lead a student/teenager/citizen to think, and strengthen his/her knowledge, acknowledging that we all are part of the problem and, at the same time, the solution to it.

Keywords : Citizenship; Environmental education; Climate change; Sustainable Development.
