These youth voices and stories are an inspiration for student action.
Students will be able to find a video for any topic of interest relating to climate change.

Prerequisites

Depending on the topic of the video, students may need background information about climate change, biodiversity, and fossil fuels.

Differentiation & Implementation

Each video has a category alignment. Teachers can use videos to support lessons about impacts on Indigenous communities, pollution, wildfires, and a range of other climate-related topics.
Students can use the resource as inspiration to create their own video project for impacts in their area or impacts that are important to them.
Teachers can have students choose 2-3 short videos to watch, recording the title, filmmaker, and coordinates. Students can then summarize the video for the rest of the class, making notes about the artistic choices.
