Sustainable consumption: individual action | 14–16 years

Challenge your learners to think about their material footprints and how they can take individual action to contribute to UN Sustainable development goal 12: ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns. 

By working through a list of individual actions that help to support sustainable consumption and production patterns your learners are asked to consider the impact of each action and whether they would commit. Their findings and views can be discussed as a class or presented within their class or school. They will then interpret real data on global greenhouse gas emissions by sector, helping them improve their numerical skills. These resources can be used with learners following a GCSE or equivalent 14–16 course.
