Case Study

Students analyze a real-world case study about melting glaciers in Greenland and how the enhanced greenhouse effect contributes to rising sea levels. After reading, they answer questions that require them to explain scientific processes, identify global impacts, and consider vulnerable communities such as island nations. The worksheet encourages students to think critically about environmental cause-and-effect relationships while applying concepts such as warming oceans, climate change, and long-term environmental consequences. It also prompts learners to propose both local and global actions to slow or prevent further damage. This activity strengthens comprehension of real-world climate issues and develops analytical reasoning.
