Missouri
Missouri currently has an independent framework in place as a method to teach climate change to students. This however does not mandate the teaching of climate change in any capacity, and it is evidently not a priority. If Missouri hopes to make any progress in the realm, it’s necessary to implement legislation that requires the teaching of climate change
