Climate Action Project- Week 3

Topic: Climate Action: Local to Global

Questions for the week:

- How can I build on prior learning to connect to new ideas?

- What are the effects of climate change on our planet?

- How can data be used to predict the future impact of climate change?

Note: Some sources of data and information on possible future effects of climate change:● IPCC - Global Warming of 1.5 degree C● Long Term Effects of Climate Change● NASA: Why Global Temperatures Matter

2. What’s at stake if we don’t act? Review this WWF resource and information on the Paris Agreement

• Consider the effects on plants, animals, weather patterns, and human activity you identified in Week 2. Begin to consider specific actions that could help prevent further problems and effects in those four areas.

Overall, all the sessions were very fruitful. Students discussed about the causes, effects and possible solutions for Climate Change. They even discussed about the possible actions that can be taken for bringing a change. They got an international platform to put forth their views. We could see the spark to make a difference. Few links for the videos made by students are given below:
