• Teaching Tips
  Video is fast paced. Consider watching a second time for deeper understanding. Excellent support resource when used in context of a larger concept or climate change lesson plan. No instructional support materials are included but if teacher clicks on the 'show more' under the You Tube video, an expanded list of other related resources appear. Teachers are encouraged to subscribe to NASA's Earth Minute You Tube channel for other videos.
• About the Science
  This short video introduces the idea of global warming through increased CO2 emissions and how this may impact the Earth through climate change. Scientific strengths: Outlines sources of CO2 emissions Clearly describes how an increase in CO2 will warm our planet even more. Suggestions: This exercise should be tied with an explanation of where fossil fuels come from and perhaps quantify the CO2 rise in recent years.
• About the Pedagogy
  Short, simplified video - good for introducing the topic. No instructional support materials are included. This is a stand alone learning resource to be used in context with other activities. Youtube video format allows for transcripts and subtitles and translation into Spanish.
• Technical Details/Ease of Use
  Straightforward video streaming.
