The greenhouse effect helps us to survive. Without this, the average temperature would be around -18°C, which is 0.4°F. The Earth needs a balance of these greenhouse gases to maintain the right temperature. Scientists have noticed a rise in the average global temperature, by a little more than 1°C, since 1880. What does this all mean?
This lesson covers this and more! Your students will love this lesson and activity all in one!
