SPARK A DISCUSSION
Complex issues become more accessible through conversations so we want to help you spark a discussion in your high school or at home.
The mini-videos below feature a professor from each of our departments in the Faculty of Environment, sharing information on important environmental topics. We hope these will spark a classroom discussion, or a discussion with friends/family. They also offer a glimpse into university studies in the Faculty of Environment.
The discussion topics in the series include:
- How can cities better protect the personal belongings of the precariously housed?
- Who's responsible for reducing ocean plastic pollution? Individuals or governments?
- What are some potential challenges as we move to shared ownership of the province between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples? What are some opportunities?
- When we are deciding how to use our oceans, how do we determine what is important?
Are you curious about our program offerings, student life at SFU and the answers to some of the most frequently asked questions?
