ABSTRACT

Cross-cultural negotiations of environmental knowledge in children and young people’s lives have received minimal attention in children’s geographies and wider childhood scholarship, despite interests in child and youth environmental concerns and learning that predate the school strikes for climate. This viewpoint articulates an agenda for advancing research in this area in light of youth-led articulations of ‘climate crisis’, beginning with exploration of how second generation immigrants encounter, interpret and negotiate the climate crisis in everyday life. The viewpoint situates this agenda in academic and popular arguments to diversify and decolonise environmentalism amid increasingly polyvocal responses to the climate crisis.

摘要

儿童和青少年生活中环境知识的跨文化谈判在儿童地理和更广泛的儿童奖学金中受到的关注很少，尽管对儿童和青少年环境问题和学习的兴趣早于学校罢工气候。根据青年主导的“气候危机”表述，这一观点阐明了推进该领域研究的议程，首先探索第二代移民如何在日常生活中遇到、解释和协商气候危机。该观点将这一议程置于学术和流行的论点中，以在对气候危机的反应越来越多的情况下使环境保护主义多样化和非殖民化。
