The Greenhouse Effect☂

Aim: To look at climate change and the greenhouse effect

Materials📋

1x Plastic bottle

1x Teaspoon Baking Soda and Citric Acid

1x heat lamp

1x Thermometer

100 ml water

1x rubber bung︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵　　

Steps📝

1. Add 100 mL of water to each of the beakers.
2. Prepare your lamps. Set them up next to each other with the necks angled
   so they will just fit over the tops of the bottles.
   Turn them on so they are ready.
3. Add Baking Soda mix to one of the beakers,
   and immediately cover both beakers with cling a rubber
   bung and thermometer. A tight seal around the edge will work best,
   and make sure thermometers are left visible so you can record the
   temperature.
4. Have students record the starting temperature –
    it should be the same in both beakers.
5. Turn the bottles so the thermometer is visible.                             
6. Record the temperature in both beakers every
   5 minutes for 50 minutes.

Issues Of Climate Change

Aim: To learn about the different activities that contribute to climate change.

• Industry-  Factories make clothes, cars, electronics and processed fools that create pollution. 
• Transport- Most cars need gas or diesel to make them work. Gas and diesel come from oil. which is a fossil fuel.
• Waste- Landfills are covering more healthy land, and when it breaks down it makes greenhouse gasses.
• Cows- Cows create greenhouse gasses called methane when they burp and fart.
• Food- The food creates a lot of pollution, by having to transport it by ships, planes, trains, and trucks. 
• Electricity- Electricity is a form of energy used to power almost everything in our homes, Elcectrcity can come from renewable resources, but it can come from non-renewable rescourses.
