Climate Change:
The human Factor behind the Problem
With this workshop each country has investigated and highlighted the responsibility of one specific human activity in the phaenomenon- problem of climate change. Then the different schools have presented the results and after discussion have proposed solutions to minimize the impact of this human activity on the natural environment.
The human activities that have been studied are: Agriculture - Stock Raising, industry, tourism and overconsumption / depletion of raw materials and energy sources.
In this activity, students have undergone through different phases:
1.- Research by each school group. Students have gathered information through internet searching, visits to different museums and guidance from experts.
2.- Each school has shared via video conference the results of the study and conclusions. There has been an exchange of views and students have suggested solutions that could solve the different problems highlighted.
3.- The different groups from the different schools have created a digital poster using the proper ICT tools summarising not only the causes and the results but also the solutions and suggestions that students came up with.
4.- Finally, all groups have drawn up a list of the necessary reforms that they believe should be adopted by governments as an environmentally friendly policy.
