Industrial Cadets Carbon Capture - Eco Garden Project

This self-paced project is aimed at 11 to 16-year-olds and can be completed independently in the learner's own time. It usually takes around three hours, but participants can spend longer developing their ideas.

The activity is flexible and can be done across multiple sessions because progress is saved.

Learners design an eco garden that supports the environment and helps tackle climate change. The project explores climate change, carbon stores and carbon sequestration, as well as the ways gardens can support biodiversity, conserve water and provide habitats for pollinators.

Participants can bring their ideas to life using recycled or craft materials, or by creating a detailed digital design.
