A Scientific Framework with Hands-On Experiments
Embedded Files
The Earth's climate is changing
Learn the issues and the science
Get familiar with the facts and public opinions before jumping into the CCSAE framework and investigations. Review these pages for context:
Learn more about climate-related environmental issues and see the evidence that connects climate change to human activity.
Survey data from all over the world. How people of many ages, cultures, and locations see climate change and a future with it.
Teach the issues and the science behind them with the CCSAE tool.
Organized into a cause-and-effect framework that makes the connection between increased carbon dioxide and harm to life on Earth, the CCSAE tool is a curated collection of experiments, videos, visualizations, infographics, and articles.
Experiments are suitable for students age 12 and up, other resources vary from age 8 and up to 15 and up.
After learning how rising levels of CO2 in the atmosphere are causing damage to ecosystems and life forms on Earth, take action and promote climate education.
What we can do as individuals, communities, and nations.
Websites with an overview of climate change and sites with sets of lesson plans.
We’d love to hear how you used this tool in your community, how the students responded, and your suggestions to improve the experiments and other resources. Contact us at ccsae@mit.edu.
