Climate change has become known to societies as its effects have become quite evident and felt on a global scale. At the same time, a lot of research is being done on the subject. On the other hand, there is a complexity about what climate change education (CCE) is, which plays an active role in struggling with the climate change crisis, and there are relatively few studies in the related literature. This situation negatively affects the awareness of CCE and its place as a concept. This study aims to explain CCE as a concept and its role in climate change awareness. In this way, it is hoped that the awareness of CCE will increase, and the study will contribute to the formation of CCE's identity. In this direction, it has been attempted to explain the idea of climate change education and its role in climate change awareness by providing descriptive data on climate change gleaned from a literature review. In order to better introduce the concept, the history of education were examined. It has been concluded that climate change education is of vital importance, and has a very recent history, but there is no common structure about what it is and how it is implemented. It can be said that this situation of CCE reduces its impact on climate change awareness. Based on the research results, it is evident that there is a pressing need for rigorous investigations into CCE.
