EastEnders Under Water!

Vicki Woolven

13th October 2022

Last night's EastEnders credits showed how melting ice caps may impact London with the Thames bursting its banks. The eye-opening scene aired as a way to mark the final episode of Frozen Planet II, giving us a stark reminder of how the irreversible damage being caused by climate change.

With many of your students tuning in to the antics on Albert Square several times a week, this short clip is a great stimulus for discussion of what our future due to climate change could be like.
