Climate Change

Calculate and reduce CO2 emissions by replacing vehicles with more fuel-efficient options. Choose cars, bulbs, or trees to make a positive environmental impact. Understand the multiplier effect and how everyday choices contribute to reducing carbon footprint.

  15. Bulbs: Solution1.71 lb CO2 is the standard we used throughout this section, based on EPA information for the US. CC.ME.3.1 Multiplier Effect

  16. Trees: StartInformation from Kelaine Vargas, USDA: "In North America, the average tree absorbs 66 kg of CO2 per year from the atmosphere. This is the number we used in the Urban Forest Greenhouse Gas Reporting Protocol. It's based on random samples of urban trees from 18 cities across the United States. In each city, we measured a total of 800-1000 trees representing the most common species. The value of 66 kg incorporates big trees and little ones, fast-growing ones and slow growing ones, across all kinds of conditions and trees in all kinds of health.”If the venue decides to translate this data, this information will need to be researched in each venue to represent the values d CO2 absorption of local forests.
