What is climate change? Climate Change is when global weather conditions change. Recently, scientists have confirmed that humans are causing temperatures to rise all around the world. This is causing ice in the poles to melt, raising sea levels. If we don't combat climate change, arctic animals could lose their homes and islands could be covered by the ocean.

On this page, aimed towards the intermediate grades of 3-5, you will find information about climate change tailored to this age range. The different readings, simulations and activities should aid in teaching children about the dangers and importance of climate change.
