Our consumer habits are at the heart of the planet’s environmental crisis. Whether contributing to climate change through factory emissions and transportation, or impacting biodiversity through pollution and waste materials, our need to own the latest electronic device or follow the latest fashion trend has led us to consume natural resources at a rate that far exceeds the planet’s capacity to renew them. Through this topic, students will h delve deeper into the issue of overconsumption and decide whether we can carry on as we are, or whether we need to drastically change our ways in order to protect our planet and its wildlife, and if so, whose responsibility is it to bring about that change? Your students will decide. Born Free’s Great Debate provides teachers with the tools to engage their students in meaningful debates about key wildlife or environmental topics. Students will not only gain knowledge about the this topic, but also skills that will help them to research, frame and deliver an argument. Armed with these skills, young people are more equipped to take action to reduce their impact on the environment, and to encourage others to follow. Lesson one – Our Consumer Habits Discuss key terms around consumption and look at what drives us to consume goods and services. Lesson two – The Impacts Of Overconsumption Discover the impacts of the fashion and electronics industry on the environment, people and wildlife. Lesson three/ Homework – Research Research and frame opposing sides of the debate. Is it the responsibility of decision makers and companies to curb our consumption, or down to us as individuals? Lesson four – The Great Debate Participate, listen and learn through a formal debate. Lesson five – Action Planning Identify calls to action and create a campaign to bring about local change.

Last Chance to Paint is a collaboration between artist John Dyer, Born Free and the Eden Project, and encourages children to create their own piece of art, inspired by John’s journeys around the world. Chapter 3 is linked to the KS2 national curriculum in art & design, music, science, English, geography, citizenship and SMSC and offers opportunities for an Africa Project. This project offers a range of classroom-based interactive learning experiences to bring the vibrant sights and sounds of the different habitats and ecosystems to life, and highlight the threats faced by the people, plants and animals who live there. Home to the Big Five (lions, leopards, elephants, rhino and buffalo), Kenya inspires visions of wide-open savannahs, soaring mountains and tribal culture. Despite these idyllic images, co-existence is not easy, with increasing human populations, shrinking habitats and climate change pushing people and wildlife ever closer together.

Wildlife and Farming: What does the future look like for cattle farming? Demand for beef and dairy products continues to rise around the world. Yet with 39% of Earth’s habitable land already used for livestock farming, and some farming methods causing damage to habitats, water courses and the climate, can we continue to farm cattle in the same way, or do we need to reduce our consumption? Born Free’s Great Debate aims to provide teachers with the tools to engage their students in meaningful debates about key wildlife or environmental topics. Students will not only gain knowledge about the debate topic, but also skills that will help them to research, frame and deliver an argument. Armed with these skills, young people are more equipped to take action such as reducing their impact on biodiversity and the environment, by making simple lifestyle changes, and encouraging others to follow. Lesson one – Land Conversion & Deforestation Animal agriculture has changed over time, but what impact does this have on wild habitats? Lesson two – Pollution & Climate Change Identify some of the environmental costs of intensive cattle farming. Lesson three – Biodiversity Loss Understand the effect that intensive cattle farms can have on biodiversity and that different farming techniques can have different impacts. Lesson four – Holding the Debate Participate, listen and learn through a formal debate. Lesson five – Action Planning Identify calls to action for a campaign and make a plan to bring about local change.
