The climate change crisis is the greatest challenge humanity has ever confronted. As human activities are the most significant cause for this crisis, the solution must come from within humanity. While global movements—NGOs, universities, municipal governments, etc.—are doing their part to combat the crisis, the role of education and technology cannot be emphasized enough. Education is necessary to enhance awareness, especially among the youth, generate solutions, and implement them. Technology contributes to this process by creating climate change-fighting solutions, accumulating and analysing data, and providing energy efficiency. Technology also enables the monitoring of the climate, the mitigation of its effects, and the enhancement of the environment. Therefore, climate change, education, and the use of technology should be addressed as a unit. In this volume, the authors integrate climate change, education, and technological applications.This book is comprehensive and offers readers a variety of perspectives, encouraging the generation of novel and inventive ideas. The collaboration of authors from various disciplines to address the issue brings about novel and intriguing perspectives.

This book foregrounds silenced voices by correlating refugee experiences with educational practices, while questioning how we address the educational rights of individuals affected by conflicts and wars.

This book foregrounds silenced voices by correlating refugee experiences with educational practices, while questioning how we address the educational rights of individuals affected by conflicts and wars. Accordingly, the book presents a novel perspective within the field of education. Within the context of the most prevalent educational instruments, textbooks, this work endeavors to highlight the muted perspectives of immigrants in education and make significant advances towards resolving this problem. Through extensive research and analysis of the relevant literature, the authors shed light on the challenges refugee students face in their educational trajectories and offer innovative suggestions for adopting more equitable and inclusive approaches within our educational systems.The book not only addresses an educational dilemma, but also emphasizes humanity's shared responsibility. Supporting the educational rights of refugees promotes not only their personal growth, but also more tolerant, compassionate, and sustainable societies. At the same time, this work promotes a critical comprehension of refugee experiences in education by presenting both problems and solutions to the readership. In this way, it demonstrates how a more equitable and egalitarian approach to education can be adopted and it ultimately encourages readers to adopt a broader perspective on the world, embracing humanitarian values and social responsibility.

This book aims to reveal how the human mind's search for order in the face of uncertainty and complexity leads to belief systems which have no scientific basis, while exploring the harms of such beliefs at individual and societal levels. Conspiracy theories, paranormal beliefs, and pseudoscientific claims can negatively affect individuals' decision-making processes, health choices, and social ties. The book aims to provide a holistic analysis of those phenomena by bringing together the perspectives of different disciplines, such as psychology, sociology, media studies, and philosophy of science. In particular, cognitive biases and social identity theory play a key role in explaining why these beliefs are attractive. As a work, it is distinct in that it not only approaches these issues from a critical perspective but also offers solution-oriented strategies to help readers acquire critical thinking skills and use scientific methods effectively.
