Greenhouse Causes & Effects

Students read a series of causes related to greenhouse gas emissions and write the likely effect on Earth’s climate, environment, or living things. Each prompt requires learners to think about how actions such as burning fossil fuels, planting trees, or reducing emissions influence atmospheric conditions. This activity builds cause-and-effect reasoning and deepens understanding of how human activity impacts global warming. By completing the chart, students connect scientific processes to real-world outcomes and strengthen their ability to analyze environmental scenarios.
