What’s inside each session?

Here’s what students can look forward to in their Eco Club journey:

Climate Change

Can you take positive action to reduce climate change?

This session introduces students to the concept of climate change and its far-reaching effects on the planet. Through engaging discussions and activities, they’ll explore the causes and consequences of a changing climate while discovering practical ways to reduce their carbon footprint. From simple everyday actions to collective efforts, students will learn how they can be part of the solution.

Greenhouse Gases

What are greenhouse gases?

In this session, students will dive into the science of greenhouse gases – what they are, where they come from, and how they contribute to global warming. Through fun experiments, like observing gas production from food waste, they’ll gain a hands-on understanding of how small actions can help reduce emissions. This session also highlights the role of individuals and communities in combating climate change.

Fossil Fuels

What are fossil fuels and where do they come from?

This session explores fossil fuels and their impact on the environment. Students will learn about the origins of coal, oil, and gas, as well as the environmental challenges they pose. Creative activities, such as fossil-making and discussions on renewable alternatives, will inspire students to think critically about transitioning to cleaner energy sources.

Renewable & Non-Renewable Energy

How can you save energy?

Students will explore the differences between renewable and non-renewable energy sources and their environmental implications. Through interactive games and discussions, they’ll identify practical ways to conserve energy at home and school. This session encourages students to become energy champions, promoting sustainable habits within their communities.

Energy Saving

How can you stop wasting energy and light?

This session highlights the importance of reducing energy waste, particularly related to lighting and electricity. Students will learn about the concept of light pollution and its effects on wildlife, such as migratory birds and sea turtles. Through storytelling and poster-making activities, they’ll develop creative ways to inspire others to conserve energy and protect the environment.

Heat Saving

How can you reduce heat waste?

Students will discover how small changes can make a big difference in conserving heat and reducing energy waste. From creating draft excluders to experimenting with thermal conductors and insulators, this session combines science with sustainability. Activities like making vegetable soup from surplus food also emphasize the connection between energy conservation and reducing food waste.
