- Abstract
Education is an important action for reducing the effects of natural hazards within the context of current climate change. However, in developed countries education has not played a prominent role in the design of risk prevention policies. Moreover, this role is important for raising the awareness of younger cohorts as they will be the protagonists of these processes in the coming decades. The purpose of this work is to propose instruction activities for the treatment of the five main processes of extreme manifestation of the climate that already affect the Mediterranean region and that should be incorporated into the subject of geography (middle and high school). These proposals are intended to be a guide for classrooms to be implemented in other territories and consider their geographical characteristics and availability data. Implementation in classrooms and future editions of school textbooks suppose a commitment to the education factor. This is because education is a basic resource for achieving a society more resilient to the atmospheric hazards linked to climate change.
