This film can serve to deepen students’ awareness of biodiversity, ecosystems, climate change and the interdependence of species. Organize a role-play to demonstrate that interdependence. Divide the class into several groups and ask each team to do a research project focusing on one species in particular. Then have each team define itself vis-à-vis the others and demonstrate the “domino effect” of climate change on ecosystems.
