Our Planet, Their Future

These rich educational resources have been designed to build on the powerful Our Planet series on Netflix (and available for free on youTube) and have been developed for primary and secondary schools in the UK.

Our Planet Classroom resources

The Our Planet series, now streaming on Netflix and YouTube, shows the awesome splendour of the natural wonders that we risk losing, but also carries a message of hope: we can still save our planet if we act now.

To support this eight-part documentary, WWF has created a wealth of free materials to inspire schools and young people to explore the Earth’s major biomes and the challenges they face. It is not necessary to have watched the series to be able to use the following resources.

Our Planet's Future Summit

Put your students into the role of world leaders and environmental experts seeking to address biodiversity loss and define the future relationship between humans and nature.

With versatile options for delivering the summit over several lessons, or as an off-timetable experience, this summit is ideal for 14-18 year-olds, but can be simplified for younger ages.
