About this title

Synopsis

Is Earth's climate changing? What could global climate change mean for the future? Forecasting the Future cuts through the hype and confusion to address this vital subject in a scientific manner. Developed with Scripps Institution of Oceanography, this volume features background information for teachers that examines past and potential climatic changes. Fourteen classroom activities and more than 40 extension exercises help students understand climate change through animal biology, chemistry, geology, meteorology, physics, and plant biology. The concepts are tied together by a sophisticated timeline that illustrates climatic changes, major extinction, and other key events in Earth's history.
