Scientists agree that we are causing a global climate change , and we need to stop it. Throughout the history of Earth, the climate has changed many times, but this time the change is more drastic than ever before. Mainly through increased CO2 levels in the atmosphere, temperatures have risen globally, leading to the melting of glaciers and the rising of sea levels.
On this page, aimed at the middle grades of 6-8, you will find readings, simulations, and activities geared towards this age range that should aid in teaching students about climate change. This is a serious issue that students need to learn about, and we hope these resources can help make that possible.
