Bring climate science to life with this engaging 20-slide digital presentation on permafrost and climate change. This lesson includes real-world video footage featuring communities being interviewed that are directly impacted by permafrost thaw, along with a behind-the-scenes look at a scientist researching methane gas trapped in frozen ground.
 
Students will explore climate control, sublimation, and environmental change through a hands-on dry ice experiment that simulates permafrost thaw using cardboard model homes. Step-by-step experiment instructions and dry ice safety guidelines are fully included. Experiment video is also included for those who can't obtain dry ice.
