Inquiries in Science: Understanding Climate Change Kit (10461) In Stock Now

Grades 9–12. Students explore how all greenhouse gas sources contribute to global climate change. They discover how carbon dioxide interacts with the atmosphere to contribute to rising global temperatures. They also investigate the role of the ocean as a carbon sink and how climate change can affect the uptake and sequestration of carbon dioxide. In the final activity, students alter their simulated environments to determine how different environmental conditions influence the greenhouse effect.

Kit contains materials for 32 students working in groups of 4 at 8 stations.
