This High School EcoHouse Curriculum lesson plan also includes:

How has the level of carbon dioxide changed over recent years, and what is contributing it? Groups work together to research and present their findings in a creative way. Also built into the lesson is a visit to a sustainable house, but it is not a necessary component to the lesson's success if there is not an eco-house available to tour in your area.
