Cliodhna, thanks for your post.
In previous years I would have shown videos of effects of Climate Change in distant countries such as Thailand or earthquakes in California but showing effects of climate change in Ireland or in our own area will bring the issues more into focus. We do have one river in our area that floods and makes the bridges between housing estates inaccessible on the children’s route home. Using this and other examples from around Ireland examining the effects on everyday life will be more effective.
