Description
Students measure atmospheric components to investigate some of the relationships involved in air pollution caused by burning fossil fuels. They record levels of ultraviolet light, temperature, and ozone and learn how environmental factors interact with fossil fuel pollutants to produce smog. Students then test car exhaust for carbon dioxide levels. They explore the Air Quality Index (AQI), and discuss the health hazards associated with fossil fuel pollution, along with steps that can be taken in daily living to reduce air pollution.
This kit is designed for 1 group of 4 students. Digital teacher’s manual, included FREE with kit purchase, is a 12-month eBook license to the Air Pollution and Vehicle Emissions Teacher’s Manual and Student Guide.
