In this activity, learners explore the human influences on the carbon cycle and examine how fossil fuels release carbon.

In this activity, learners make a miniature greenhouse or "terrarium" to explore the greenhouse effect.

In this activity (on page 1), learners role play as atoms to explore how atoms can be rearranged to make different materials.

In this activity (on page 7), learners explore the meaning of a "carbon sink." Using simple props, learners and/or an educator demonstrate how plants act as carbon sinks and how greenhouse gases cause

Learners will build and experiment with their own windmills made from simple household materials.

In this activity, learners are introduced to tree rings by examining a cross section of a tree, also known as a “tree cookie.” They discover how tree age can be determined by studying the rings and ho

In this very hands-on lesson, learners will investigate dendrochronology (the study of tree rings to answer ecological questions about the recent past) and come up with conclusions as to what possible

In this activity, learners explore the concept of density-driven currents (thermohaline circulation) and how these currents are affected by climate change.
