Bees and our future: From crisis to thriving
Bees and our future: From crisis to thriving
Content
Bees are the silent engines of our world. Without them, our nature and food systems would collapse. But bees are struggling: due to the use of pesticides, a lack of flowers, and habitat loss, they are disappearing at an alarming rate.
In this learning playlist, you are the pollinator. Just as a bee flies from flower to flower, keeping nature alive, you will take your knowledge and action to different places in your local area. Each activity you complete is like a load of pollen you deliver: you leave something valuable in every spot. Together, we will pollinate our community into a thriving place for both people and nature.
Your pollination steps:
🐝 Activity 1: The bee as a climate hero: The preparation.
You gather nectar (knowledge) to get ready for your flight.
🐝 Activity 2: Journey to 2050: Exploration in Virtual Reality.
You will see what the landscape looks like without pollinators. You will understand why your flight is so crucial.
🐝 Activity 3: Digital pollinators: The first landing via Augmented Reality.
You choose a spot in the park and leave your first "pollen" there in the form of a bee hotel.
🐝 Activity 4: Art helps the bee: Spreading through paper art.
You distribute your seed paper. Wherever you land, things will grow.
This playlist is part of the 360 Youth project.
