Climate Change Basics

Science · Weather & Climate · conceptual

Understand the basics of climate change: Earth’s atmosphere traps some of the Sun's heat (the greenhouse effect), burning fossil fuels adds extra greenhouse gases (especially CO₂), this is making Earth gradually warmer, and this warming changes weather patterns, melts ice, and raises sea levels

What mastery looks like

  • Describe the greenhouse effect: the atmosphere traps heat from the Sun
  • Explain that burning fossil fuels increases CO₂ in the atmosphere
  • Name at least two consequences of global warming: changing weather patterns, melting ice, rising seas

Check your understanding

Can Climate Change Basics explain the greenhouse effect in simple terms and describe how burning oil, gas, and coal adds extra CO₂ to the air, making Earth warmer and changing weather patterns?
