How to Bring Climate Into Any Classroom Webinar Series Webinar #2 - Nature, Soil and the Future of Food

This Webinar Series is a collaboration between AimHiEarth and Kilkenny Education Centre, Athlone Education Centre, Drumcondra Education Centre, Limerick Education Centre and Waterford Teachers' Centre.

This Webinar Series, suitable for Primary and Post Primary teachers, will help participants:

• Understand the climate and nature crisis,
• Get inspired, empowered and focus on solutions,
• Become a confident communicator, and
• Enjoy engaging and positive learning.

Whether you know lots or nothing about the Climate and Nature Crisis, this Series is for you! For those who know a lot about the Climate and Nature emergency, this Series will help participants to become more effective communicators in the classroom. For those who know very little, this Series will help participants to get up to speed. This live and interactive four-part Series features inspiring role models, experts and change makers from around the world. Participants will be equipped with the motivation, resources and knowledge needed to drive individual, collective and systemic change.

In this second webinar, Nature, Soil and the Future of Food, the following will be explored:

• The full story of land use and farming, from the dominance of monoculture to the universe of soil,
• The most misunderstood notions behind our Earth’s natural system, that lead to poor decision-making, inadvertent greenwashing and well-intended campaigns that do more harm than good, and
• Food waste, biodiversity, local extinctions and rewarding, and most importantly, what we can do.
