A task to last a few lessons. Students to watch a video by the Economist on how 5 experts would spend $1bn to ‘save the oceans’ and then expand the task themselves to create a business plan for how to spend $qbn to save the earth. A template helps them structure their research and present their projects to the class. To tie in with Dubai COP28 but can be used at any time - of for any COP. I doubt they’ll agree to save the world anytime soon, so I imagine this lesson can be reused and recycled again and again :) Wolsey Academy, a non-profit resource provider, directs all profits to various charities, including refugee support, youth sports, educational programs, and carbon capture, achieving a carbon-negative status.
