Lesson Plan Content
Description:
Future generations should be sensitive to the harmful impact of overusage of fossil fuels and its relationship to climate change. Students should understand that today’s use of resources determines what people of the future will have to use and in what environment—a healthy one or an unhealthy one they will reside. Therefore, the essential question of this lesson is “What is the impact of over-consumption of nonrenewable energy and how can we avoid it?” In this lesson, students will connect the concepts of renewable resources and alternative resources to possible solutions for climate change and global warming.
