How we became responsible consumers

• Am I a consumer? Yes, YOU are!!! Each of us is a consumer.
• Definition: A consumer is one that buys goods for consumption and not for resale or commercial purpose. The consumer is an individual who pays some amount of money for the thing required to consume goods and services.
• Am I a responsible consumer? Why? Why not?
• Let's make this important issue the subject of our international eTwinning project

In this project we followed the approach: LEARN/EXPLORE - ACT - SHARE

Have you ever thought what is a real price of the products you buy?

The first step to become experts was to gain a lot of knowledge on the subject. In order to do that we looked at the climate clock, discussed who is a responsible consumer, counted our carbon footprint, used water footprint calculator, organized a survey for our schoolmates to get knowledge about their consumer habits

We acted in international teams to create a lot of activities needed for spreading the idea of responsible consumption. As a result of our collaboration we completed: a set of printable activities (crosswords, puzzles, QR codes, word searches), online activities (Kahoot quizes, LearningApp games and quizes, Scratch quizes), presentations to start workshops and certificates of attendance for participants.
