Climate Change ….. One of the most used phrases being thrown around by people. Not only in politics, but in education, business, and everyday conversations. But do we really know what we are talking about and are we putting our best foot forward as teachers to ensure we educate the future generation about this topic?
Let me start by making it very clear. I AM NOT A CLIMATE CHANGE EXPERT!!! But I am a teaching expert and I think the latter is more important. In Asia, plastic pollution is in my face everywhere I look. From poisoning and injuring marine life by disrupting human hormones, from littering our beaches and landscapes to clogging our waste streams and landfills, the exponential growth of plastics is now threatening the survival of our planet. In response, Earth Day 2018 (coming up on April 22) is dedicated to providing the information and inspiration needed to fundamentally change human attitude and behaviour about plastics.
With Earth Day coming up on April 22nd why not get the conversations started by using some of the above strategies and ideas. This year the campaign is dedicated to ending plastic pollution by 2020. You can use some of these Earth Day resources and activities to supplement your whole school strategies and approaches:

There’s nothing special about the energy we sell. In fact, it’s exactly the same energy as all our competitors provide. But there is something special about the way we do it. Where others complicate the process, we simplify it. Where others confuse customers with hidden terms, we’re an open book. And where others do all they can to make as much money from their customers as possible, we do all we can to make as little. Everything we do, we do it differently. Our customers are a privilege. One we’ll never take advantage of.
