The lesson plan was developed for the 11 to 14 age group and is a free resource. It provides teachers and anyone working with young people in this age range with a set of useful materials to introduce them to the concept of the circular economy and show how we can all contribute to protecting our planet’s natural resources.

The lesson includes a variety of everyday examples, engaging activities, and appealing videos to explain the difference between the linear and circular economy, and to help young people understand the importance of recycling as part of safeguarding our finite natural resources.
