Resource Overview
In this interdisciplinary environmental science lesson, students graph real-world data on global meat production, use hands-on manipulatives to compare the environmental impact of four protein sources (beef, chicken, plant-based, and seafood), and engage in a critical thinking discussion about the benefits and challenges of a changing global diet.
Use this video alongside our Meat of the Matter lesson plan to help students practice data literacy and engage in inquiry-based learning. For more details on this lesson, click here.
