Abstract

This study defined the climate change education implementation in the public elementary school in Atimonan I and II District
in the Division of Quezon. The study aims to answer the following: the present status of climate change education, the level of
implementation in the climate change, awareness of the respondents; dissemination, need for facilities, equipment, instruction
materials, etc.; Government support in the policies in schools; organizational culture/organization climate in response to
climate change, the challenges encountered, the actions taken by the responsibilities to address the challenges, effective climate
change.The study's quantitative approach. The researcher will use survey questionnaires to collect data for this study. Statistics
were applied using the weighted mean and percentage distribution of data to address specific difficulties and use traditional
statistical methods. Based on the findings to adapt because they are doing the most to incorporate national planning, strategies,
and policies to address climate change. It advised that the proposed School Action Plan in DRRM, which is the research
output, may be utilized by the public elementary schools in the Atimonan I and II District Division of Quezon to implement the
DRRM program.
