Ready to show your students that sustainability is far more than just recycling?
Bring the "Block by Block: Building a Sustainable Future"* session to your class! In this interactive challenge, students step into the shoes of energy company decision-makers. Armed with 20 blocks, they must prioritise critical sustainability topics from renewable energy to community safety.
But… There's a twist! midway through, a surprise "curveball" scenario hits, forcing them to navigate complex trade-offs in real-time. It’s an engaging way to explore STEM careers and the reality of the intersection of science, business and ethics in decision-making.
