Abstract

The article offers information on a school project on making students understand the severity of the effects of global warming. The project consists of students formed into groups where they are asked to collect the same data. Each group was required to show their findings in a research paper and through visual presentation which includes the types and numbers of cars being driven to school, the time and length it takes to drive to school and the total greenhouse gas emissions put into the atmosphere by the cars. The findings show that each car coming through the driveway and parking lot waited an average of 14 minutes per day in the morning and 11 minutes in the afternoon which emits a total of 148,97 pounds of greenhouse gases every school year.
