In this lesson, students explore whether ecocide should be considered a crime, as proposed in international law.
Step 1 - Inquire: Students respond to photos and facts about the environmental impact of the destruction of a dam in wartime Ukraine, and are introduced to the concept of ecocide.
Step 2 - Investigate: Students learn the proposed definition of ecocide in international law and analyze it using a Frayer Model, exploring possible examples during both wartime and peacetime.
Step 3 - Inspire: Students demonstrate their knowledge of ecocide and present their perspective on the topic by creating and sharing a one-pager.
