13.2 Climate Change, Evidence and impacts
Climate Change: Exploring the Evidence and Understanding the Impacts
Learners will investigate the scientific evidence behind climate change and examine its far-reaching impacts on Earth's oceans, ecosystems, and human societies.
What You'll Learn
Human activities have driven unprecedented rises in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels.
Ice cores and temperature records provide direct evidence of global warming.
Ocean acidification and coral bleaching illustrate serious climate change impacts.
Tipping points and feedback loops can make climate change effects self-reinforcing.
What You'll Practice
1
Students analyze greenhouse gases, feedback loops, and global warming evidence.
2
Questions test understanding of ocean acidification using logarithmic pH calculations.
3
Learners identify climate proxies, tipping points, and key scientific vocabulary terms.
Why This Matters
Understanding climate change evidence and impacts equips students with the scientific literacy needed to evaluate environmental data, engage with global policy debates, and contribute to solutions for one of the most pressing challenges of the modern era.
