09. The Conservation Trilogy (VHS & Teaching Activities)

These three programs (all on one tape) encourage environmental literacy and come with curriculum tied activity suggestions and black-line masters of student worksheets. All three productions have been broadcast on national TV in Canada! ........ (P.T.O)

Video 1: What A Land, What A Sky showcases images from a six-week wilderness adventure across Canada. An excellent addition to language arts, science, geography and music programs.

Video 2: We Recycle is a fast paced look at the three Rs as a lifestyle, rather than a fashion or fad.

Video 3: Broken Beauty: The Ballad Of Block D explores the fragile beauty of a large tract of undeveloped land on the downtown Kingston waterfront. The question is not necessarily: should development occur? But more accurately: What type of development, and for whom?

The video short "Song for the Earth" (an eloquent plea for the plight of endangered species with music by Jim Scott) was funded by the World Wildlife Fund & Canada Life Assurance Company, and was picked up for broadcast nationally on First Choice Superchannel, eventually winning their Great Canadian Shorts Contest in 1990. The $5,000 winnings provided seed money for two more low budget shorts that were also broadcast nationally. All three of these productions are now combined as the Conservation Trilogy on one videotape, with classroom activities.
