Roll No. 1-20 Sustainable Goal - Responsible production and Consumption

How can I help in achieving this goal as a consumer?

There are two main ways to help:

1. Reducing your plastic waste .

2. Being thoughtful about what you buy and choosing a sustainable option whenever possible.

Reducing our waste can be done in many ways, from ensuring you don’t throw away food ,to reducing your

consumption of plastic— one of the main pollutants of the ocean. Carrying a reusable bag, refusing to use

plastic straws, and recycling plastic bottles are good ways to do your part every day. Making sensible

purchases about what we’re buying also helps.

Write a story covering above-mentioned 2 points. The main characters of your story will be Chhutki and

Tinku, the siblings and their parents. You can add more characters. Your story should revolve around the

exemplary work of Chhutki and Tinku which made them the true idols to many. Don’t forget that your story

has a beginning, climax and end.

Or

As a young responsible citizen of this nation it is our duty that we consume our natural and manmade

resources wisely. Present your ideas of responsible consumption of resources systematically in the form of a

TREE, showing its roots , branches, leaves, dry leaves depicting various ways of consumption,

Present your work on a A3 size sheets.

Roll No. 1-20 Sustainable Goal - Responsible production and Consumption

PROJECT ON RESPONSIBLE CONSUMPTION

“Energy conserved is life preserved”

Energy consumption is an imperative part of our lives. Life today is unimaginable without energy resources. For

our future generations to avail the same benefits, we need to work towards responsible consumption.

Let’s begin from our homes. Electricity is widely used in every household on daily basis. The amount of energy

consumed by various electrical appliances is given in the table below :

APPLIANCE POWER USED PER HOUR

1. Tube light 30W

2. Ceiling fan 30W

3.Air Conditioner 1500W

4. Microwave 500W

5.T.V. 80W

6. Computer 20W

The following is to be done by the students during the summer vacation:

Collect the data for power consumption by the above appliances in your house for 10 days (using the table

given above). For example, if you are using 3 tube lights for four hours in a day, then power consumed by the

tube lights would be 3x4x30W= 360W . Similarly power consumed can be calculated for other appliances for

one day and hence for ten days. Calculate the total energy consumed by your family in 10 days.

The following will be done after summer vacation in the class:

As a group, represent the total energy consumed by each family on a bar graph.

Discuss among your group members and enlist various measures to be taken to reduce energy consumption.

Tabulate how much energy we can save by taking these measures. Also mention the advantages of saving

energy.

The study to be submitted in the form of a folder and presented by each group in the class.

spoiling due to poor transportation and harvesting practices.

Make an advertisement to socially aware the people about the adverse effect of food waste on A3 size

the Earth habitable for humankind

However, today pollution, global warming, unsustainable fishing and degradation of natural habitats are

threatening marine and coastal biodiversity.

1. To experience marine life,

Make a list of 10 longest living marine animals and write their life span.

Round off their life span to nearest 100.

Compare their life span with the help of Bar Graph.

How can the marine life be protected?

Make a beautiful collage of marine life.

Roll No 21 –till last

The Andaman, Langkawi

The Andaman is an amazing resort with the Andaman Sea on one side and a 10 million years old rainforest on

the other. The Andaman Reef in front of the hotel is approximately 8,000 years old and 50 meters thick. This

coral reef protected the bay during massive 2004 tsunami which claimed thousands of lives in the countries that

were hit as it absorbed most of the impact from the tsunami. However , while protecting the human population

the tsunami did kill thousands of coral – colonies and made it difficult for living coral and of course the fish and

sea creatures to survive.

Following the tsunami, the hotel began clearing the dead coral from the bay and began efforts to regrow the

corals. The dead corals are recycled in the nursery to speed the growth of new corals. There are large concrete

blocks with holes in them to allow fish to lay eggs and be protected from the predators.

The Andaman is doing great job preserving and protecting our oceans. Even the swimwear for guests are being

produced by recycling discarded fish nets from our oceans.

Considering the above case, make a sway presentation on similar innovative initiatives taken to protect and

preserve LIFE UNDER WATER

2. Roll no. 21-40: Sustainable Development Goal 14- Life Below Water

The Ganges River dolphin or Susu, lives in one of the most densely populated regions of the world. One

of the main threats to the species is loss of habitat due in large part to the creation of dams and irrigation

projects. This blind dolphin is now one of the most critically endangered animals of India.

Keeping this in mind, prepare a comic strip on A4 size sheet of about 5-6 pages on ‘ SUSU- the blind

dolphin’- which talks about their habitat, threat with a special emphasis on WWF, India’s attempt to

increase their numbers and ensure to leave a message at the end for their conservation.
