Topic 2 will introduce you to the United Nations Sustainability Development Goals: Quality Education; Clean Water & Sanitation; Responsible Consumption and Production; Climate Action; Life Below Water; and Life on Land as they relate to Resources and Climate Change.

You will also be introduced to climate change and how it affects the ocean and us as sailors, as well as the use of resources (like water, energy and purchased products) in a sailing club.

You will also find out how using resources effectively reduce the impact of climate change and about the circular economy and how this helps to reduce the impacts of climate change.

And finally, you will learn about how we travel and Greta Thunberg’s sustainable trip to New York City on a sailboat to reduce her carbon footprint to attend the United Nations climate summit.
