ACTIVITY 1

1.1

1.1.1. Two sustainability indicators are:

- Carbon footprint: It measures the amount of greenhouse gases emitted by individuals,
organizations, or activities.

- Biodiversity index: It assesses the health and diversity of ecosystems by measuring the number of
species and their abundance.

1.1.2. Four examples of the application of sustainability indicators are:

- Assessing the impact of a new transportation system on carbon emissions.

, - Monitoring changes in the biodiversity index of a protected area after implementing conservation
measures.

- Evaluating the energy efficiency of a building through its carbon footprint.

- Measuring the sustainability performance of a company by examining its waste generation and
recycling rates.



1.2. Sustainable development, as understood from the Brundtland Report, is the development that
meets the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to
meet their needs. It is a holistic and long-term approach that takes into consideration economic,
social, and environmental factors, aiming to achieve a balanced and equitable society. Sustainable
development promotes the responsible use of resources, protection of the environment, and social
progress while maintaining economic growth. It recognizes the interconnectedness between
economic development, social well-being, and environmental preservation, emphasizing the
importance of integration and cooperation between different sectors and stakeholders to achieve a
sustainable future.

1.3 One environmental issue around my school is the improper disposal of waste. Many students and
faculty members often throw their waste in the wrong bins or even on the ground, leading to litter
and pollution.

To address this issue, I would choose the topic of waste management and teach a lesson on the
importance of proper waste disposal. In this lesson, I would apply the five Tbilisi Principles of
environmental education as follows:

Environmental issue: Water Pollution
Lesson topic: Causes and Impacts of Water
Pollution
Tbilisi principles Application of the Tbilisi principles
1. Principle of holistic approach - Start the lesson by discussing the
interconnectedness of water pollution with
other environmental issues, such as biodiversity
loss and human health. Emphasize the
importance of addressing the root causes and
understanding the wide-ranging impacts of
water pollution.
2. Principle of learner-centeredness - Engage students in hands-on activities like
water quality testing and analysis. Encourage
them to collect water samples from local water
bodies and analyze them for pollutants. This
practical experience would promote active
learning and allow students to make
connections between theory and real-life
situations.
3. Principle of experiential learning - Organize a field trip to a local water treatment
facility or a polluted water body. Students will
observe the processes and technologies used
for water treatment, as well as the effects of
pollution on aquatic life and surrounding
