Exploring the Environment - UV Menace
Description:
ETE encourages students to collaborate to solve real-world problems dealing with modern environmental challenges. For each module students read background information and learn about their situation before they solve a problem. Read teacher pages before beginning.
In this module, students evaluate the current status of the Montreal Protocol (regarding agreements on the worldwide elimination of CFCs and other ozone-destroying substances)
and determine how adequately it considers the interrelationship of Earth's spheres.
