DAY 3: The Carbon We Emit When We Eat
AIM:The aim is to empower students with knowledge and a sense of responsibility, encouraging them to make more informed and sustainable food choices, which can contribute to a greener and more sustainable future
DETAILS :The teacher will explain that food impacts more than your health. It affects the environment, animals and people. What you eat, where it comes from, and how it was produced contributes to your FoodPrint — think of it like a carbon footprint, but for food.
Students will watch the video https://globalcarbonatlas.org/emissions/carbon-story/ or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OM7n7WrmUUg
Students will research on Issues in Food and the Environment. After the discussion, each child will calculate their carbon footprint based on the food they have eaten yesterday and will reflect
