Extension - Continued. . . 


1. What is permaculture? 

Permaculture is a set of design principles centered on 

whole systems thinking, simulating, or directly utilizing the 

patterns and resilient features observed in natural 

ecosystems. It uses these principles in a growing number of

fields from regenerative agriculture, rewilding, and 

community resilience.

Permaculture Life

4. The Need To Grow follows pioneers of cutting edge technology as they fight to localize 

sustainable food systems and regenerate Earth's dying soils.


With an estimated 60 years of farmable soil left on Earth, The Need To GROW offers an intimate look into the hearts of activists and innovators in the food movement - an 8 year old girl challenges the ethics of a beloved organization - a renegade farmer struggles to keep his land as he revolutionizes resource efficient agriculture - and an accomplished visionary inventor faces catastrophe in the midst of developing a game-changing technology.

Narrated by Rosario Dawson (Marvel’s The Defenders, The Lego Batman Movie), TNTG delivers alarming evidence on the importance of healthy soil - revealing not only the potential of localized food production working with nature, but our opportunity as individuals to help regenerate our planet’s dying soils and participate in the restoration of the Earth.

 

Questions: 


Earth has lost 1/3 of it's farmable land in the last 40 years.


Today 70 % of the earth's farmable soil is gone. 


What is bio char? Why is it beneficial for soil regeneration? Bio char is the bi-product created by the GPH. Adds air, water absorption benefits to the soil. 


What is a GPH? Green Power House 


During WW2 how much food was grown in local gardens? 40%


What percentage of our food is thrown out and ends up in landfill? 97% 


What are the affects of this? Increase in C02, Methane, Nitrus


What is a closed looped system? Where the waste is utilized to put back into the system - full loop -

zero waste and regenerative. 


Note: We got to 1:10 in The Need To Grow film - last 30 min for Monday.

     Unit 1 Continued - Globalization & Climate Change


‘I don’t think science knows,’ Trump responds when challenged on 

climate change at wildfire briefing


1. Attendance 


2. Review of page 109 Terms In Red - Globalization 


3. Introduction to Climate Justice. 


Climate Justice means recognizing that climate

 change has 

 negative effects on most people in the world, 

but

 impacts the poor


and vulnerable the most – those who have done 

the least to 

 

contribute to the problem. 


Climate justice says that we in wealthy 

countries – and the wealthier among us – who 

have benefited the

most from using fossil fuels, must do more of the 

heavy lifting 

to reduce our greenhouse gas (or carbon) 

emissions. As well, 

actions to address climate change and reduce 

our 

greenhouse gas 

emissions must be implemented in a way that is

fair and just.


4. Climate Justice Quotes


5. Introduction to Climate Justice. 


6. After Presentation Thoughts: 

  • A commitment to climate justice is a way to ensure fairness for young people today and into the future, both here in BC and around the world.
  • Climate change is a big global problem, but there are lots of solutions. The key is getting people to work together to make change.
  • Climate action is often local. Young people in BC are concerned about climate change and are already advocating for climate justice. What can you do to help make a difference?
