Science 7-1: The Environmental Impacts of Heat

Objective: Identify and evaluate different sources of heat and their environmental impact

Introduction: The climate of the whole earth is really changing and it is affecting those who live in the North somewhat faster than those who live in the south. The global climate is the average climate over the entire planet, and the planet is warming up faster than ever before in history. Scientists have discovered that we are causing the warming, and it is our job to learn what we can do to slow down the warming.

Curriculum Connections:
Students will analyze issues related to the selection and use of thermal technologies, and explain decisions in terms of advantages and disadvantages for sustainability.
