One of the biggest outcomes to the #ClimateCrisis is famine, especially for those countries that currently bear the brunt of it. But it affects all of us. Check the graphic in the post 👇

Wheat crops affected by heatwaves and then flooding ofc

It may seem like our discussion was full of conflict and contradiction, but the 2023 #GreenELT forum reflected something crucial. That we need to work on everything, everywhere, all at once.

"Every fraction of a degree of warming will be counted in greater human misery and lives lost. Which means everything we do to cut emissions will help reduce suffering. We are morally obliged to do what we can."

"The Future of English tells a story. It is a story in which man-made climate breakdown has been erased, [teaching] readers that it is unimportant and unworthy of consideration."

@ELTfootprint asks why @BritishCouncil decided to ignore the biggest crisis of our time👇

[ELTfootprint @ELTfootprint]

@BritishCouncil, this letter is for you. Our response to your new report 'Future of English'. Profoundly disappointing not a single mention of the climate crisis. Why did you decide to ignore the biggest crisis of our times?

New @BritishCouncil report claims to ask the important questions around the #ELT sector but completely ignores the complex relationship between language education, English and the environmental crisis.
