Abstract
This paper is a content analysis of the current and recently (2023) voted School Curricula (S.C.) of greek education, in terms of Climate Change (C.C.) teaching. Keywords and terms referring to C.C. are searched in the texts of S.C. and their number and frequency of emergence is documented. Consequently, the citation of the phenomenon of C.C. in Greek primary and secondary education is examined, both horizontally, per grade of education and vertically, per subject. Results show that in the new S.C., particular subjects in specific grades lead the way in C.C. education, without a more homogenous reference to the phenomenon of C.C. at the other subjects or grades of education.
