In this environmental education demonstration (page 6 of the PDF), learners will see a tangible representation of the scarcity of soil resources on earth.

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

This activity models the necessary balance of creating power and cleaning up its associated waste. Learners participate in a game where they attempt to move forward toward a goal.

In this activity related to climate change, learners create and explore topographical maps as a means of studying sea level rise.

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

In this activity, learners discover how solar energy can be used to heat water.

In this activity on page 27, learners perform an experiment to learn about how different types of marine debris degrade and how weather and sunlight affect the rate of degradation.

In this activity about molecular diffusion (located on page 2 of the PDF under Nanosilver Activity), learners will make predictions and move molecules of iodine through a seemingly solid plastic sandw

In this data analysis activity, learners use data collected by the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) to study Chilean sea bass populations.

Have you noticed the plastic rings that are used to hold six-packs of soda? Those rings are great for carrying cans, but they're real trouble when they become trash that animals can get tangled in.

Learners design their own experiment to investigate how pollution diffuses through ground material.

Learners will understand the relationship between climate change and sea-level rise.

This game uses a modified Uno deck to review concepts related to stem cell research and diabetes.

In this activity, learners collect, categorize, weigh and analyze classroom trash and discuss ways that engineers have helped to reduce solid waste.

Through discussion and hands-on experimentation, learners examine the geological (ancient) carbon cycle.

In this activity, learners identify different plastics in a mystery bag. Learners discover that plastics are classified #1 through #7.

This hands-on experiment will provide learners with an understanding of the issues that surround environmental cleanup.

In this activity (on page 2) about fingerprint analysis, learners use graphite from a pencil and scotch tape to capture their fingerprints.

This activity helps the learner answer the question: "What environmental problems arise due to animal and human overpopulation and what might need to be done to combat these problems?" Learners play a

In this experiment, learners examine the way oil affects bird feathers and test different cleanup methods to find out which works best.
