Earth Science, Technology for the Planet, and Human Impact on Earth Systems
SUSTAINABILITY UNIT 2023 - 24 TENTATIVE
Sustainability: Honorable harvest, clam gardens – sustainabilityReflect
Spheres interact.
Climate change is real, project draw down, reflection
Causes – research energy production - Research one good/bad – pros and cons,
What is your consensus on energy usage?
Impact of Global warming - event? Research an event and how can we mitigate? Control burns, plants, berms, trench, drought, heat dome, fire, flood, hurricane
Research
Research
How are oceans affected?
Ocean acidification - demo
Ocean currents - Density Lab
What can we do: Technology: Recycling, plastic alternatives, GMO, eat less meat, How do we go green, fish farms, Honorable harvest, story of stuff
What will you do? Present your alternative. Evaluate for you and others. Reflect
Capstone- info graphic: Describe climate change, causes, impact, what we can do – big and small. Could also watch Story of stuff to add.
Plan rought draft on regular paper
