What is climate change?

Soil, alimentation and agriculture

How can we teach it?

What is climate change?

OBVIOUS PROOFS

What is behind this? The greenhouse effect

1896: ARRHENUS

What is our individual footprint?

And in the future?

Impacts of modern agriculture on biodiversity

Impacts of modern agriculture on biodiversity

Pesticides kill pollinators. Predators of bumblebees or honeybees, in turn, are also killed.

Monoculture provides less food for pollinators and intensifies soil deterioration.

Flowers are no longer pollinated by bees, so for example trees produce less fruit

But agriculture is directly concerned by climate change

How can we teach climate change in diferent ways?
