Managing Resources
Individuals, communities, and countries depend on a variety of different resources to help them thrive: electricity, timber, oil, water, and food to name a few. Because these basic resources are such a large part of our daily lives, it is important that we manage them responsibly to ensure future generations have what they need. Human civilization heavily impacts the environment and the rich natural resources we depend on. All communities face the challenge of managing resources responsibly, not only for themselves, but for the sake of the world around them. Learn more about how individuals and communities can manage their resources to support themselves and the world around them.

Sustainable Development Goal 2: Zero Hunger
In 2015 the United Nations General Assembly adopted 17 sustainable development goals designed to transform our world by 2030. The second goal is to end hunger, achieve food security, improve nutrition, and promote sustainable agriculture. This initiative strives to help us rethink our global food infrastructure, from how we grow and harvest food to how we consume it. With a growing global population, we will need to implement innovative, sustainable practices to ensure equitable food access and eliminate fears of going hungry. Use these resources in your classroom to teach your students about sustainable agriculture and tactics that could potentially end world hunger.
