This is the second part of the 5E lesson Greenhouse Gases and the biosphere. It contains the Explain and Elaborate sections of the lesson. Students will be using computers to gather more information and then synthesize the information into a group poster. Students should be drawing conclusions that the use of fossil fuels is increasing greenhouse gases causing the temperature to rise and thus affecting the biosphere in a number of different ways. Students will be using the EPA website to gain information about this topic.
