In this oil, fossil fuels and Earth's atmosphere worksheet, students answer 3 questions about the origin of oil and its uses, the effects of burning oil and fossil fuels on the Earth's atmosphere and the origin and maintenance of the...

Students explore renewable energy by analyzing a diagram. In this fossil fuel lesson, students view a chart explaining the different energy consumption from automobiles and how they impact our environment. Students analyze a point based...

Middle schoolers analyze how to use less energy. In this energy conservation lesson, students discuss fluorescent and incandescent light bulbs and experiment to examine the energy of both sources using thermometers. Middle schoolers...

In this chemistry worksheet, students fill in 10 blanks with the appropriate term, they determine if 4 statements are true or false, they match 6 terms with their definitions and they answer 3 questions. Topics include areas of chemistry...

Fourth graders brainstorm the differences between the fossil fuels that people use in their transportation now and what they could use to minimize greenhouse gas emissions. They use a variety of techniques from webquests to writing...

Students research and investigate the concepts carbon cycle and fossil fuels. They graph the carbon dioxide production as well as populations of six nations. Together they generate a variety of recommendations to reduce travel=related...

Students explore the relationship between greenhouse gases and global warming. Carbon dioxide is studied as a contributor to the problem.
