Ecological footprints Ecological Footprint activity
Students will discuss environmental problems in a science lesson. They will be informed about the meaning of "Ecological Footprint" and its importance for the survival of our planet Earth. Then they will fill an enquiry on a website to find out their ecological footprints. A class discussion on the results will follow and according to these results, each student will make a promise on how to decrease his own footprint in a concrete way. Below you will find the results and in the "take action - reduce your footprint" section you can read the students' promises. Gli studenti discuteranno sui problemi ambientali durante la lezione di scienze. Verranno informati sul significato di "Impronta Ecologica" e la sua importanza per la sopravvivenza del nostro pianeta Terra. Poi riempiranno un questionario online per scoprire la loro impronta ecologica. Seguirà una discussione della classe sui risultati e in relazione a questi risultati, ogni studente farà una promessa per diminuire la propria impronta ecologica in un modo concreto. Sotto troverai i risultati e nella sezione "take action - reduce your footprint", si possono leggere le promesse degli studenti.
