The Pack contains associated resources for the learning experience, typically in the form of articles and videos. There is a teacher Pack (with only teacher information) and a student Pack (which contains only student information). As a teacher, you can toggle between both to see everything.
Here are the teacher pack items for Competition for Limited Resources:
Overview In this experience, students watch a video about the state of the world’s agricultural resources and pose questions. Then they summarize key information about fires and deforestation, water stress, food insecurity, and global waste. Next they write an analysis of one of those topics as a potential source of global conflict. Finally they describe an organization that is using global cooperation to combat limited resources. Objectives
The world population is rapidly approaching nine billion people. Can planet Earth support so many people? What happens when there is not enough usable land, water, or other resources? In this experience you will learn about limited resources as a source of global conflict and cooperation.
Objectives

What questions do you have after watching the video?
You can use student questions as guiding questions throughout this experience. At the end of the experience, you may revisit the questions and have students suggest their own answers.
