CURRICULUM CONNECTION: SPECIES LAW

SCIENCE 10

UNIT D – ENERGY FLOW IN GLOBAL SYSTEMS

General Outcome 4: Students will investigate and identify human actions affecting biomes that have a potential to change climate (eg. Draining of wetlands)

Should an investigation of human impacts on the environment include an investigation into the degradation of critical habitat for species at risk? What does the law need to do to encourage better protections for species at risk? Look at differences in law provincially and federally.
