Students use satellite data to help determine the greatest renewable energy potentials in any given region and develop graphing skills.

Students use global temperature data to create models and compare short-term trends to long-term trends.

Students build a model that demonstrates an important contributor to sea-level rise – how water volume increases when the temperature of the water increases.

This demonstration uses a water balloon to show how Earth's oceans are absorbing most of the heat being trapped on our warming world.

What is sea-level rise and how does it affect us? This "Teachable Moment" looks at the science behind sea-level rise and offers lessons and tools for teaching students about this important climate topic.
