ECONOMICS ACTIVITY -1: SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
We don’t inherit the earth from our
ancestors, we borrow it from our
children. The greatest threat to our
planet is the belief that someone else
will save it. Refuse what you do not
need; reduce what you do need; reuse
what you consume; recycle what you
cannot refuse, reduce, or reuse; and
rot (compost) the rest.
In the light of the above words, students of Group 4 & 5 will make an innovative product
using waste material. Also, make a project covering the following topics:
1. What is sustainable development and what are the goals?
2. In what ways do improved recycling technologies impact the waste that ends up in
landfills?
3. Do taxes on single-use items reduce the amount of waste that goes into landfills?
4. What has Denmark done to reduce its food waste?
5. Paste a photograph of your ‘best out of waste’ product and explain the process of
making it, it's usage and justify it's efficiency.
Note: Project has to be handwritten. Participation of each group member is mandatory. The
project should be aesthetically appealing and as interesting as possible.

ECONOMICS ACTIVITY -2: CONSUMER AWARENESS


“Without consumers, all the business in the
market would have vanished. They are the
supreme and prime constituent of the
demand-supply chain.”
Keeping the above quote in mind, Group 6
will design a questionnaire of 10 questions
related to consumer awareness. The
answers to the questions should be in (a)
always (b) never and (c) sometimes.( e.g.
Do you check the expiry date of packaged
edibles?). Carry out a survey on consumer awareness on 20 people using the
questionnaire.
Based on the findings from the questionnaire, the students will prepare a project file
which should include the following :
1. Design a cover page depicting consumer awareness in the form of a poster. (No
digital print will be acceptable)
2. Consumer rights and duties
3. Consumer Protection Act details
4. Exhibit the findings of the survey in the form of a tabular presentation and a
