Teams of six to eight players imagine that they are driving in a vehicle and collect balls that represent carbon dioxide emissions based on their different activities. "Greenhouse Gas Guzzler" cards tell teams how many balls to collect...

Using hula hoops, bean bags, volleyballs, and boxes, little ones cooperate to simulate a reduction of carbon emissions. There are three different obstacles to compete in, making this a fun team challenge. In addition to carbon clean up,...

In this colorful animation, our current problem with climate change is likened to a block-stacking game of Tetris. Greenhouse gases are increasing in the atmosphere at an increasing rate. Can we place them properly before it's too late?...

Young scholars explore the Carbon Mitigation Initiative by playing the Wedge Game. In this environmental science instructional activity, students discuss different strategies to reduce carbon emissions. They evaluate their strategies and...

Students calculate their own carbon footprint. In this environmental science lesson, students explain the consequences of global warming. They research ways to mitigate climate change by reducing carbon footprints.

In this energy consumption worksheet, students use on line resources to explore the energy use by different countries around the world. Students compare the amount of light emitted by different countries and their carbon dioxide...

Students use a meter to measure the energy used and carbon produced by electronics and appliances. In this environmental science and technology lesson plan, students use a Kill-A-Watt meter to determine the electricity used by everyday...
