We received this message from Kathleen Ladouceur (Catholic Schools Program Officer) about Development & Peace’s fall campaign: ‘Create a Climate of Change’ is about to launch – this campaign focuses on how humans are affected by climate change and advocating for Canada to make real changes as we prepare for the COPP21 meetings in parishes this December. Attached are two resources,  Needs & Wants K-6 and Climate Balloons 7-12, that help students to understand the connection between our actions here at home, and how they impact those around the world through the climate. The rest of the resources (action sheet, action card, posters, report, prayer card, etc) can be ordered free of charge here: http://www.devp.org/en/education/fall2015/materials) . Honestly, I am really excited about this campaign – it’s a hot topic and crucial timing, these games are tangible for students, and it unites both student’s creative actions with a world-wide movement!
