The urgency of the climate crisis has recently gained significant traction, with efforts and actions being recognized as necessary by experts and the public discourse in Albania. However, its integration into mainstream awareness remains largely limited to scientific circles, making it difficult for the general public to grasp and for decision-makers to articulate effectively. Unfortunately, the severity of the climate crisis hasn’t received enough focus in various sectors like governance, media, and education, hindering widespread awareness and understanding.
