Personal Change

Everyone has options for personal change, and there is much change that needs to happen in the world to make a sustainable future.  For the rest of this week, we'll be looking at a variety of case studies to see about how your choices impact the future.

Read through the following three case studies in a jigsaw fashion.  Mrs. D will split you into multiple groups. (30 min)

Is it Sustainable to Eat Bananas?

Is the Human Cost of Bananas Worthwhile?

Ecotourism:  An Alternative to Raising Bananas?


Present your case studies to the group in a summary fashion. (30 min)

Spend 20 minutes and  provide a position statement for this issue.  The format is up to you, but one easy solution is to follow this plan 

You DO NOT need to write an essay.   You do need to hand this statement in.

Divide into groups based on your position.  Discuss.
