Biodiversity: God's Wisdom - Strength in Diversity

God’s gift of biodiversity is a marvellous gift to creation and to us humans who are given the responsibility and joy of caring for it. Using a case study based on a real situation, students consider how developing a parcel of wooded land can affect the biodiversity and long-term health of its ecosystems. They classify the living creatures and investigate their inter-relationships. They take on various roles and learn to make informed and wise decisions about using God’s creation while developing it for positive impacts.
