| Description: | This learning tool teaches students how to analyze the historical data set of carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and chlorofluorocarbons. It also demonstrates the increased concentrations of the 'greenhouse gases' by finding their source and sink reactions. The learner will design an international global warming policy based on scientific data, but also taking into consideration environmental, social, political, and economic realities. The learning tool is divided the following seven sections: -What Do We Need To Know About Global Warming? - What Is A Greenhouse Gas? Visible and Infrared Spectroscopy - What Determines Whether A Gas Is A Greenhouse Gas? - Lewis Structures and VSEPR, Polarity and Infrared Activity - How Much Are Greenhouse Gas Concentrations Changing? - Why Are Greenhouse Gas Concentrations Rising? - Are You a Significant Source of Greenhouse Gases? - Is The Earth Warming? - What Should We Do About Global Warming? |
