Description
In the present thesis we investigated the ideas of 120 sixth grade students from four primary schools of Ioannina region as well as their knowledge on greenhouse effect mechanism, on the causes, on the consequences and mainly on the actions taken against climate change. During the survey a mixed questionnaire was used with open and closed questions.
Overall, it is observed that there is a lack of knowledge about the greenhouse effect mechanism and the greenhouse gases. On the contrary, students seem to be better informed about the causes and the consequences of the phenomenon and the ways to restrict it. On the other hand, many children's misconceptions were highlighted.
