The document outlines a lesson plan for teaching students about climate change and reducing carbon footprints. It involves students researching ways to reduce carbon footprints in small groups and presenting their findings. As a class, they will launch a recycling experiment to chart materials collected and money earned over a month. Using digital tools, students will calculate the amount of CO2 kept from the atmosphere. Finally, students will create a video using interviews to share what they learned from the experiment.
