This resource looks at the impact on birds, "today's dinosaurs" of:

  • habitat loss
  • water pollution
  • light and noise pollution

The Human Impact - Saving Today's Dinosaurs' course contains five 45-minute learning through play sessions plus a showcase day to share the pupils' creations and ideas. The resources explore how humans impact the planet. Children will learn that humans can have both negative and positive effects on nature and create their own positive impact by coming up with imaginative solutions to related real-world challenges.

These resources were created by LEGO Group’s Sustainability team in partnership with the Natural History Museum and are part of the Build the Change series of courses.
