In this lesson, students learn about climate change, calculate their carbon footprint, and take steps to reduce their carbon footprint. 

 

Step 1 - Inquire: Students watch a video about climate change and work in groups to discuss how they positively or negatively impact climate change in their behaviors and practices. 

 

Step 2 - Investigate: Students calculate their carbon footprint to discover their impact on the planet.

 

Step 3 - Inspire: Students learn how they can reverse the impact they make on climate change and inspire others to make a difference by creating posters for their classroom, homes, and community.
