Description
Obtain and combine information about ways individual communities use science ideas to protect the Earth’s resources and environment:
- Explore how everyday life affects the Earth’s resources and environment (carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere, patterns of climate change)
- We are increasing CO2 levels through transportation, agriculture, production, using nonrenewable resources
- Reduce your Carbon Footprint and protect the atmosphere: daily consumption choices, driving alternatives, clean energy sources, recycle, water use
- Gain knowledge about the positive and negative effects our everyday life has on the environment and how we can protect our planet and help preserve our earth
- Calculate Carbon Footprint, detect CO2 in the atmosphere, model greenhouse effect
- We are altering the carbon cycle and moving carbon into the atmosphere rapidly
