This kit enables children to explore a critical issue by helping them understand global warming and how to alleviate it. Children learn about the science of Earth's climate system, weather, and atmosphere by conducting experiments that model the atmosphere, wind, and ocean currents. They examine the role of humans in global warming by conducting experiments involving carbon dioxide and the greenhouse effect. Children investigate the potential consequences of global warming on humans, ecosystems, and the world's economies. They also learn what we can do to protect the climate. Kit comes with a 48-page, full-color experiment manual. Ages 10 and up.
