Lesson Outline
Discuss global warming as a significant increase in the Earth's climatic temperature over a relatively short period of time, due to human activity.
A significant increase is 1 degree or more over a period of 1-2 hundred years.
Review and discuss the difference between weather and climate and introduce the term anomaly as an event that falls ouside of the usual statistical range.
Note that a change in climate may involve tens of thousands of years.
Modern climate change is based on records kept for about 150 years.
Charts showing average temperature increase, mean sea level change, and average snowfall over 150 years verifies that climate change has been occurring.
