How useful are the resources left by students?

• Web article links & videos

• Some of the links are fairly obvious

• But some innovative solutions

• Great starting points for discussion or for running

sustainability seminars

• Examples….

Linking your discipline and food sustainability • The psychology of supermarkets

• Made a clear link between their discipline and food

problems
