Why our Child-Experts Love It
They have heard all about it in the news, or at school.
But Global Warming sounds like something that happens in your Mom′s microwave.
We love this kit because it has a great book with experiments that help kids understand the climate, why it changes, and how our actions affect it.
First, learn about Earth’s climate system, weather, and atmosphere by conducting experiments with a model Earth and atmosphere.
Next, learn how human activity influences the climate with experiments involving carbon dioxide and the greenhouse effect. Finally, investigate the potential consequences of global warming on humans, ecosystems, and the world’s economies.
Ah, now I get why everyone wants to be so green!
