  4. Key Questions - Why? • How is Climate Change affecting the weather? • Who is most affected by Climate Change and how? • What are the effects of Climate Change on the environment? • How do these changes in the weather and environment affect plants and animals? • Could people, the environment, or plants/ animals benefit from Climate Change?

  5. Key question: What can we do locally? • What would be the key features of a sustainable community/society? • How would we categorise the different areas for adaptation and mitigation? • How can we reduce poverty? • How can we reduce our energy use/ CO2 emissions? • How can we minimise the need for travel? • How can we protect our ecosystem? • How can we reduce our waste and consumption of resources?

  6. Key question: What can we do globally? • What about food miles? • What are the pros and cons of switching to renewable energies? What resources are required for developing renewable energy? • Will new carbon free technologies be developed to slow Climate Change? • Does increased tree cover soak up CO2? Is the best solution to stop destroying rainforests? • How can we reduce poverty? What is ‘sustainable development’?
