SDG-Global Goals -Active citizenship
Making cities more inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable is therefore SDG 11 of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals, adopted in September 2015 as part of the 2030 Agenda.
More than half of the world's population - 55%, or more than 4 billion people - now live in cities and towns, according to the United Nations (UN) 2023 Sustainable Development Goals Report
. This figure is expected to rise to 70 % by 2050, presenting a huge set of challenges in addressing coexistence, sustainability and equality.
Cities are responsible for about 70 % of global greenhouse gas emissions and are at the heart of the climate challenge. In this regard, accessible public transport is presented as a relevant solution to reduce air pollution and traffic, as well as a tool to promote productivity and inclusion. However, only 51.6% of the world's urban population has access to public transport, with considerable differences between regions.

Climate Change and Action
OUR PLANET OUR FUTURE
"Chakra the Invincible" is the third in a series from the UNICEF-backed Comics Uniting Nations. It's aimed at kids and young people, and presents the causes and results of climate change.The story tells kids that climate disasters are on the way, and offers them measures they can take and tells them what they need to demand of the grownups around them if worse effects are to be averted.
HERE YOU CAN FIND THE COMIC:

https://quizlet.com/_88gr0m?x=1qqt&i=hh8qq
The comic’s story follows a Model United Nations group discussing the effects of climate change on children and their countries. They decide to call on their superhero friends Chakra the Invincible and Mighty Girl, who try to fix the surface of the problem — using typhoon rains from the Philippines to put out a forest fire in Indonesia. But they soon realize that climate change is too complex to address action by action, even with superpowers. Instead, each community has to learn how to work together, and do its part.

Extraordinary Jobs
Ordinary Jobs
https://quizlet.com/_4wbhdm
The Most Extraordinary Jobs
1. Pet Food Tester
Yes, it's a thing, and yes it's totally gross.
But as the owner of pet food company Huds and Toke, Mark Gooley, says, "If you wouldn't put it in your mouth, don't you dare expect your dog to eat it."
Mr Gooley eats dog food for a living. He eats everything from doggie treats and chewy bones to liver mixture.
2. Gumologist
A lot of hard work goes into creating the perfect piece of chewy.
Just ask Jesse Kiefer, who works as a Gumologist for Cadbury Schweppes.
Kiefer has to get the flavour just right, which isn't easy with some combos like strawberry and lime - which he says don't complement each other that well.
3. Waterslide Tester
Monday morning definitely seems a lot more enticing if you get to spend your working week slipping down water slides. Especially come summer.
And water slides are usually placed in massive theme parks. Imagine getting to spend your lunch break on a rollercoaster, and eating a hot dog for lunch.
Working holiday, am I right?
4. Teddy Bear Repair Technician
Kids get really emotional about their toys. Remember when your favourite toy lost an arm, or suffered a similar life-threatening injury? It was devastating.
But now there's a special technician who can come to the rescue.
The Build-A-Bear Workshops have a Teddy Bear Repair Technician who is hired to repair those much-loved teddy bears and get them back to their cuddly, intact, lovable selves.
5. Snake Milker
Snake venom is powerful stuff. It can be turned into drugs to treat all kinds of conditions, including a poisonous snake bite.
But some brave soul needs to collect that venom by hand. They gently expose the snake's fang and squeeze out the deadly juices.
"The only difference between me and any other company in the world that produces something is that the means of production here can kill you...and wants to," Alabama snake milker Ken Darnell says.
6. Laughter therapist
They say it takes more muscles to frown than it does to smile. If that’s true then a career as a laughter therapist should be an easy ride. In this job a laughter therapist must do their best to make people laugh their way to a better life. Perfect for any budding clowns out there!
7. Paint Watcher
You may have heard some people say they’d “rather watch paint dry” than do something they don’t want to do. Well, if they really mean it the opportunity is there – studying the drying time and effects of paint as a full-time job for a paint manufacturer.
8. Dice inspector
In the gambling world, millions can be lost at the roll of a faulty dice. With that in mind, the job of a dice inspector is an important one, making sure each die is in proportion, with all the right angles and blemish free.
Discussion Questions:
1. Which job did you find the most extraordinary/usual/exciting/boring/useful?
2. What other extraordinary jobs have you heard of?
3. What kind of person would do things like that for a living?
4. What qualities are required for each of these jobs?
5. Which of these jobs would you be able to do? Why?
6. Which of them you would never agree to even if offered lots of money? Why?
