Description:
The carbon cycle is a process where carbon dioxide travels from the atmosphere into living organisms and the Earth, then back into the atmosphere. Learn how changes in carbon dioxide levels, such as burning fossil fuels (oil, gas, etc.), affect the atmosphere and the ocean. We will flood a "bathroom" and see why it's a good thing to shut off the water and or make the Earth's atmosphere "drain" bigger so we don't mess up our home. The webinar will last about 45-60 minutes with moderated questions and answers throughout. Aimed at grades 2-8, but all ages will enjoy. (Recorded on September 30, 2020)
