Abstract

The catastrophic global effects of climate change affect us all. Israeli innovators are rising to the challenge and are tackling sustainability head on. What circumstances forced Israel to make innovations in sustainability efforts a national priority? How is Israel making an impactful change in the world? In this resource learners will discover the initiatives that are changing the world and through creative learning activities such as a desalination simulation, and identify  ways in which they can make a difference.

The learners will:

  1. understand why, like Israeli innovators, we must learn to think and behave in a way that sustains the natural world 

  2. know how Israel has become one of the leaders in the world for water conservation. 

  3. be able to initiate ways for their own communities to take part in water conservation or other environmental efforts
