In this demonstration, learners compare and contrast regular water ice to dry ice (frozen carbon dioxide). Both samples are placed in a solution of acid-base indicator.

In this activity, learners play NOAA's Carbon Tracker game and discover ways to keep track of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the world.

Learners observe a simple balloon model of an electrostatic precipitator. These devices are used for pollutant recovery in cleaning industrial air pollution.

Working in groups, learners model the continuous destruction and creation of ozone (O3) molecules, which occur in the ozone layer.

Learners observe and discuss a vacuum cleaner as a model of a baghouse, a device used in cleaning industrial air pollution.

Learners test two jars of ice water, one covered and one open, for changes in temperature. After placing the jars in the sun, learners discover that the covered jar cools down more slowly.

Learners discover that their breath contains carbon dioxide, one of the pollutants found in car exhaust.

Learners build devices from rubber bands to test for invisible air pollutants.

In this environmental science and data analysis activity, learners work in groups to track a Dead Zone (decreased dissolved oxygen content of a body of water) using water quality data from the Nutrien
