| Background: Climate change refers to the long-term changes in global temperatures and other characteristics of the atmosphere. Climate has changed throughout Earth's long history, but this time it's different. Human activity is causing worldwide temperatures to rise higher and faster than any time we know of in the past. Aim: was to assess awareness of secondary school students regarding climate change in Sohag city. Design: A descriptive research design was used in this study.

Tools: A structured self-administered questionnaire which included three parts: Socio-demographic characteristics, secondary school students' knowledge about climate change, and secondary school students' attitude toward climate change. Results: more than three fifths of the studied students had average total level of knowledge about climate change, and slightly less than one third of the studied students had poor total level of knowledge about climate change. And more than three quarters of the studied students had positive total attitude level toward climate change.Conclusion: There is highly statistically positive correlation between total knowledge levels and attitude levels toward climate change. Recommendations: Educational program should be performed to secondary school students regarding climate change. Further researches in the field of climate change should be done in other setting and on large sample. | ||||
