I totally agree with Mohammed.
For sure I will adapt these kind of lesson for my student because I think they'll be really involved.

I would ask my students to investigate what the greenhouse effect is and why it is essential for the existence of life on Earth. Then I would tell them to investigate why the greenhouse effect is being talked about negatively in the media. Finally, that they look for corrective technologies that are being researched ...

The knowledge about climate change is a process, which is connected with different school subjects, society, family. I would use this activity, and to finalize the topic, I will encourage my students to prepare the survey and to present the results.

# data[].attributes.body
I know this activity. We practice together with my students every year. We analyze the results together. They are reducing their carbon footprint by informing their families on this.

# data[].attributes.body
I know this activity and I used it when my students study climate  change.
They analize their behavior at school and in the family and reflect for a better future

This activity iš very useful. I'll realize this in my classes

# data[].attributes.body
This is great opportunity to show it to my class. I think it would be very useful and educating.

# data[].attributes.body
I would have to collaborate with the ICT teacher or the Physics teacher. I do can arrange many activities on my own, but in unity is the strength.

# data[].attributes.body
As Mohammed says it is an interdisciplinary activity and this helps teachers to plan different activities using ICT tools or even using art

# data[].attributes.body
The activity is useful. Students can work individually, then present their results, summarize all the results of the class. It is necessary in the classroom to discuss how to reduce footprint, to offer students the opportunity to discuss this problem in the family.

# data[].attributes.body
Wonderfull activity! I'll try it

# data[].attributes.body
I will realize  this very engaging activity in my classes

I would adapt this lesson to my students asking them to identify the factors that contribute to the carbon footprint and then calculate it

Sorry Guys but i was way too astonished finding the page had been removed from EPA website. Have you read the message there? It is the TV news bouncing off my PC screen... Thanks the Alessandria teacher who shared the local italian WWF page. But this kind of ruined my day... At least two generations passed and still we find powerful people opposing those who oppose the greenhouse effect and climate change...

# data[].attributes.body
Every time I address the theme of natural resources and the impact of anthropogenic activities on the environment, I compute with my students the carbon footprint and the water footprint, using dedicated software on the Internet (for example, http://www.stopco2.ro/calculeaza-amprenta-emisiilor-co2/#calc).

# data[].attributes.body
I can use this activity as a personal project.

# data[].attributes.body
I always talk to the kids about how important it is to keep the planet clean and I start from a video on youtube titled 2050 Letter. I then see that children go home and ask their parents to respect nature, not to throw away garbage at random, to turn off the light etc.

# data[].attributes.body
Carbon footprint is part of the sciences program in 8th grade but most of the times teachers only explain the concept and show some graphics about it. I think that adapting this activity like Mohammed did and letting the students learn and actively participate will be much more effective.

# data[].attributes.body
I am quite inspired by the topic and was happy to find a Singapore version of the carbon-footprint calculator. I am afraid that the provided lesson plan appears rather incomplete - perhaps it is only meant to inspire us to create our own lesson. Either way, it will require quite a bit of adaptation for my lesson.
edit... Adaptation is done! Er... how do I go about the copyright issue?

# data[].attributes.body
I think I can use this activity as a personal project for each student and if they enjoy it they can also propose it to their classroom or their home.

I will use this interesting tool when I will teach about "Climate change".

# data[].attributes.body
Even though I am teaching in first grade this year I can adapt this activity to my little pupils. In the footprint we will paste  pictures all the factors that contribute to pollution and climate change.
Then we can have another footprint with pictures of all the solutions which can help reducing and minimizing pollution.
This could be a group work. Children would have fun. Before starting this activities we could watch short videos about the effects of pollution and what causes it

# data[].attributes.body
To be aware of climate change and energy consumption for an individual this application can be used for many levels in schools.

# data[].attributes.body
this lesson is a good example for climate change. Definitely to go back to my classse.

# data[].attributes.body
The students can prepare a ppt about what they know or what they already find out about Climate change using other ict tools.

# data[].attributes.body
interdiciplinary aproach and using ICT tool for research and collaboration is the best way to encourage students to choose STEM career

# data[].attributes.body
Good lesson based on ict tools . practically you could help pupils to discover anything related to geography or interculturality

# data[].attributes.body
I also did the carbon footprint calculator with my students in grade 4. after we finished, a discussion followed about activities they did which increased their footprint and things they could do as a group to change that. So, studentstook action. They calculated incandescent light bulbs in their houses and got on a program to change them. They stopped useing plastic bottles at school and started using water bottles. They even made their own reusable shopping bags so that they would stop using plastic bags. During teh process of all these they kept a diary of other people's reactions, too. It was all very interesting

# data[].attributes.body
Carbon Footprint is an important concept to understand that "There are no passengers on spaceship Earth. We are all crew" (Marshall Mc Luhan). Calculate their personal Carbon Footprint using ICT tools could be really involving for my students, making them aware of their daily actions.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the project is interesting, but to be feasible, I think it should involve the families of the pupils. Only in this way can you hope to achieve appreciable results~

# data[].attributes.body
this lesson is a good example for climate change.

# data[].attributes.body
I think I can adapt this lesson in some practical ways to my lessons. The idea of investigating their own Corbon Footprint will make students more sensitive about nature since they will criticize themselves. This lesson will absolutely increase the level of avareness about global warming and climate change.

# data[].attributes.body
This lesson is very interesting and the subject is multidisciplinary. Students can calculate the carbon footprint. Make graphs, make small videos about this multidisciplinary topic.

# data[].attributes.body
I will adapt this lesson plan to calculate how much each family can reduce carbon footprint by using led bulbs instead of incandescent bulbs.

The class can be divided into small groups of experts. Each group will take care of a specific aspect and evaluate its environmental impact. At the end, the work will be shared in a collective discussion.

It's both exciting and necessary to think one's own emissions over. By doing the math, it's easy to find the personal key components.

Every previous learning experience of a student might be used in order to create a new one. Reading this didactic course induced me the idea of a PBL experience for my primary students. It will be about the climate change, the human impacts in the environment and the actions we could take to reduce the risks.

This lesson is a good eample for my planning lesson about renewable and non renewable energy

Since my students are very young (age 6-7) I should start with the first part of the plan. In the near future I might use some of the mentioned lessons because they were very interesting ans useful.

# data[].attributes.body
I will adapt this lesson for my students. Useful !

# data[].attributes.body
Young children are very in these subjects. I have to adapt this lesson to their age, but once adapted I think they will be happy and they will explore and learn a lot.

In pre-primary school we can construct the initial concepts of recycling,the greenhouse gas in order to the coming years teachers in the larger classes can continue to construct all these concepts which are appropriate to create an ecological consciousness.

# data[].attributes.body
I will develop  this activity in my classroom.

This activity is easy to work , very nice and very useful .

Now is time to STOP  CONSUM  !
Is time to REDUCE, to REUSE, to RECYCLE !

# data[].attributes.body
I really like this activity. I consider it is very suitable for performing with my students. We will celebrate the Climate change day and I think it is a good idea to make an exposition with our carbon footprints and our commitments of reducing the emissions. Thank you Purdue Climate Change Reserach Centre!

I could involve the students in the fifth, reflecting on the air pollution of our metropolis.

# data[].attributes.body
why not use it to promote collaborating teaching in class in connection with recycling in Universe?

# data[].attributes.body
it seems to me very interesting.
certainly, I'll use this lesson with my students!

# data[].attributes.body
I'd work trying to increase my students' mindfulness about recycling and about every day little actions. That's a simple but basic way to start.

# data[].attributes.body
This lesson is useful in approaching on topics like
recycling waste, reducing pollution, protecting the environment.
I would start working in class using the following questions from the lesson plan: "Does your family recycle newspaper? Does your family recycle glass?
Does your family recycle plastic? Does your family recycle aluminum / steel cans?"

# data[].attributes.body
I've found this talk absolutely right and agreeable. I used too a online tool about ecological footprint:
http://www.improntawwf.it/main.php
I think the same about the importance of the ICT tools in the nowadays teaching. I know that not all the school can benefit of the modern devices in my country, but recently our government has approved a great digital project that should give financial resources to as many schools as possible to buy all the stuff that can provide a good digital way of teaching.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that activity in our classroom. This activity is very nice.

# data[].attributes.body
I would suggest to incorporate STEM in classes for solving local environmental problems.

It is very important to mobilize the previous knowledge of the students. For this, the lessons that will reveal student needs should be designed. And new lessons must be designed according to these needs. Emphasis should be placed on different applications and expert discussions

In my second class we started studying ecology. Over the years I have come to realize that if, as a science teacher,  I am limited to a descriptive study of the phenomenon, the students will remember very little and, certainly, will not face conscious choices about the impact of human activity on the balance of our Planet. For this reason this year I focused on plastic consumption and its effects on ecosystems when released, but also on how the ecological footprint can change if important ecological choices are made to reduce the consumption of plastic objects. After a theoretical study through various teaching materials (book, video lessons), students in my class will be divided into two large groups of 7 to address a  debate about plastic usage and consumption. There will be the Pro group and the Counter group. Each group will be provided with study materials (the study will take place in class) consisting of sitographies and two expert interviews,  a technologist and an environmental biologist, Pro and Counter respectively. At the end of the debate during which there will be time for moderate discussion by the professor, students will have to determine if they can live without plastic.

The only thing that occurs to me here is to do with my students a geanealogical tree of the family, starting with them as children, so that they realize how far we can go with our offspring and how surprising it is.

I really liked the carbon footprint activity. Will surely be using it sooner or later. Found it easy to work through and also very interesting.  I would modify parts of the questions re natural gas and oil. Furthermore in Malta lots of electricity is spent on cooling down indoors due to the summer heat. This can be used for a discussion and calculation too.

# data[].attributes.body
I can make them reflect about their families life style and about the fast that our naturale resourcers are limited, so they could change their use of them.

# data[].attributes.body
Of course yes. When I attend sociology classes, I have to turn to the other social and natural sciences to distinguish clearly from one another, and in this task I always use the contents already explored in other sciences, namely the scientific method. The students are the ones who name the various sciences, natural and social, tell what they think each one studies and then, build the steps of the scientific method.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, I can make my little pupils reflect on the causes that contribute to the pollution of our Earth, sensitizing them because every person is responsible, even the smallest ones.
I then record their daily and family behavior in writing.
Then, together, we try to understand what are the correct ones and those who instead harm our fragile planet.
