SCIENCE AND

SUSTAINABILITY

REVISED EDITION

Want your students to investigate energy use,
biotech, and other current events?

This is a course of big questions . SCIENCE AND
SUSTAINABILITY uses themes and activities related
to sustainability to engage key concepts from
life, earth, and physical sciences .

If you find yourself thinking:

• I want to integrate life, earth, and physical science in meaningful ways within
a single course .
• How can I prepare adequately for this new course I’ve been given?
• It’s hard to keep everyone’s opinions informed by primary evidence .
• I want my kids to do more themselves yet I still find myself lecturing a lot.

Motivate your students to care about more than just paper vs . plastic . Get your students
collecting data, analyzing risks, assessing trade-offs, supporting decisions with data, and
applying scientific concepts to an array of current real-world situations.

Material World, a companion student resource book, is a magnificent portrait of families and
their material possessions from 30 different countries across the world . The pictures will
challenge your perceptions of how people live in developed and developing nations . It’s an
excellent resource for taking your students on a “field trip” to investigate global issues.
