Investigating Climate Change

Investigate our changing climate and think about the impact you have on the planet. In the lab you will see how atmosphere affects the temperature of Earth and other planets and think about how changes to our atmosphere could affect the climate. At Science On a Sphere®, you will see the whole Earth as if from outer space and discover how small changes in one area can potentially have a big impact on the weather and temperature all over the globe!
