@YootDigmeMusic Thank you for directing me to your thread! Those statistics are alarming. Amazing how the media can manipulate information so easily. Still great news that Scotland is meeting 55.4% of their electricity generation through renewables but disappointing it isn't 97% as indicated :(
This is awesome news! Scotland are showing the rest of the world how it's done, using renewable energy for 97% of their electricity demand in 2020. Students have the opportunity to research strategies used by Scotland & explore how Australia can implement them #EDUC4750#UoNTeach

Scotland has some of the most ambitious climate targets in the world, with a legally binding target of reaching net-zero emissions by 2045.

@BrodyPalmer9 Such a fun and engaging way to incorporate ICT and current world issues! Once students make these connections online they can communicate these skills into real world experiences.
Take a look at this awesome resource! Recycling is an extremely important component of maintaining a sustainable future & taking #ClimateAction
How would you incorporate Minecraft: Education Edition in your classroom?

Prepare to lead your students on an epic journey through Sustainability City! On April 15, join @SaraMBeebe for an educator walkthrough of the new Radical Recycling lesson to get ready for #EarthDay. Register here: https://t.co/R9xlt9YO7e

@BrodyPalmer9 I think so too! It allows students to communicate and collaborate with the wider community, helping students become critical 21st century thinkers!
What a great idea! Integrating ZOOM chats into the classroom allows students to engage with the community on a local, national or international scale. This can provide students with a deeper knowledge and understanding of important issues around the ๐
#EDUC4750#UoNTeach#SDG13
Conducting ZOOM chats in the classroom to connect and discuss the issues of food waste with the community and relevant personnel open opportunities for students to heavily connect, influence and involve their local community. How else will you spread the message? #SDG12#UoNTeach
Global energy consumption and CO2 emissions are major contributing factors to the #ClimateCrisis worldwide. Check out the 8 Climate Action Superheros working towards helping students fight Climate Change around the world. https://t.co/YBECzcNTjc

Households consume 29% of global energy and contribute to 21% of resultant CO2 emissions.

What a fantastic resource to use in the classroom to encourage #ClimateAction ! This website allows students to express their personal views on what Climate Education means to them.

@MissAtkins00 That is a great idea! I believe that allowing students to think critically about all aspects of their learning enables them to become successful 21st century learners!
I love De Bono's #thinkinghats ! I will definitely be using this teaching strategy during my unit of work on climate change! De Bono's hats get the students thinking deeply from a variety of perspectives, just what we need in critical/creative thinkers! #Educ4750
In order to get students to seperate their thinking into clear functions and roles encourage them to wear one hat a time so they are able to think of all possible outcomes. See this website for more detail on De Bonoโs #thinkinghats#UoNTeach https://t.co/GxXxyoX1X7
@alex_talty What a great way to #upcycle milk bottles! Students will have so much fun reusing & recycling materials and watching their plants grow! #EDUC4750
@alex_talty What a great idea Alex! Partaking in a school clean up day or partnering with @Take3fortheSea would be another engaging way for the students to take part in #EarthDay#UoNTeach
With #EarthDay fast approaching, it is time for teachers to think about how they will discuss concepts of climate change and environmental destruction. The theme for this years Earth Day is Climate Literacy. In what ways will you engage students in Earth Day? #EDUC4750#UoNTeach
This is the sad reality of poor #foodhabits. Almost 1/5 of the worlds food is wasted. Students can investigate many ways to reduce #waste around their school to help the fight against #climatechange. What ways do you think students could reduce food waste in schools? #Educ4750
Almost 17% of all food produced worldwide is wasted. This seriously impacts the environment, fuelling #climatechange and #biodiversityloss.
Start taking #climateaction today by changing your #foodhabits and reducing #foodwaste.

How #sustainable is this!! This is a great initiative in the war against #plasticpollution. Students could use this as the basis of a research task to investigate what other sustainable materials could be used in place for plastic straws #zerowaste#Educ4750#UoNTeach#SDG13
This is an example of a creative use of ICT resources in schools. Students can easily research and present their findings through powerpoints or videos, sharing their perspective to their peers or the wider community. Great stuff! #Educ4750#UoNTeach#SDG13
What a great find Alex! I will definitely be using this resource to achieve #SDG13 goals in my classroom as it allows students to learn about the importance of protecting our planet for future generations #Educ4750#UoNTeach
What an amazing an inclusive way to change students mindsets and develop their own constructive ideas on how to save the planet! great resource for everyone! #UONTeach#EDUC4750#SDG12
@alex_talty Great observations! I found this post which supports your ideas about the importance of choosing greener food systems to develop renewable and sustainable living conditions! #Educ4750#UonTeach

Farming directly accounts for 17% of global GHG emissions.
Greener #FoodSystems can aid in reducing emissions of climate-warming gases and pave the way for achieving #SDG13: Climate Action.

Great find Luke! These changes are small steps that contribute to larger global goals like combating climate change. This valuable resource can be used in all classrooms as a reminder of the negative environmental impacts of littering #EDUC4750#UoNTeach#SDG13
A fantastic poster to hang in your classroom to inspire students to make changes that reduces our effect on the environment. These are small changes that we can all make to help us achieve #SDG14. #UoNTeach#Educ4750
This is something to ponder on. I believe the #ClimateCrisis is taught more than ever in schools however there is defiantly room to increase & improve delivery. Do you think there is room for improvement or are schools meeting #ClimateAction guidelines? #Educ4750#UoNTeach#SDG13
This is a step in the right direction! Clean, renewable energy is a key component in achieving global climate goals. Throughout 2020, there was 50% more growth in renewables than in 2019! This shows promising signs for future renewable energy development. #Educ4750#UonTeach
