Lesson Overview
In Lesson 7, you will use appropriate video, multimedia presentation, or print technology to create action plans that would reduce the amount of energy—and, by extension, greenhouse gas emissions—per person that is used for transportation in our community. When students have created their action plans and completed their presentations, they will be given time to present these plans to the class.
Lesson Objectives
By the end of this lesson, students should be able to:
Create a plan to reduce per-person fuel usage and greenhouse gas emissions in their community.
Create media presentations to communicate their plans to others.
Present their plans to the class and give each other constructive feedback.
