Climate change is a complex issue. In this introductory activity from the Centre for Science Education and the Comino Foundation, students are asked to look at four photographs depicting issues related to climate change and to think creatively about how the people in the pictures might feel. Students express their opinions in pairs and fours, before discussing emerging dilemmas as a class.

The appropriate collage of images is then used to introduce one of the four main activities in the Climate Futures series: Green biker, Garbage guru, Food for thought and Smart energy.
