Fabulous lesson assigned by teacher
My daughter's 8th grade science teacher had each of the children construct (easy print and cut out) the Global Warming Wheel Card (http://www.epa.gov/climatechange/wycd/downloads/wheelcard.pdf) and calculate our household's greenhouse gas emissions.
This is a great integrated curriculum assignment with science, math, and learning how to read six month's worth of our PG&E statements to determine an average. It was also good for our family to see that we're doing our part to reduce global warming.
