Environmental Changes

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

High school scientists research and illustrate changes in the local environment and consider relationships among agriculture, industry, economy, natural events, and social interactions. They construct a timeline to discover if there are any correlations. This instructional activity can be used in any science course to explore human impact on the environment. Although it is written for island dwellers, it can easily be adapted to the environment in which you live.
