16. Sustaining the Environment
The content of this task can be adapted to suit any Curriculum for Excellence Level.
This task sets out to look in depth at the environment, and the changes which have been and are taking place which affect all living things on the planet. The study will look at biodiversity on land, sea, and air; the natural changes which occur, and the changes brought about by the activities of the peoples of the world. Pupils will also consider the living conditions of peoples around the world, and what needs to be done in many parts of the world to improve these conditions. The pupils will then demonstrate their learning to an audience.
