Climate Detectives Kids Activities 2023-2024

Activity: Väder vs Klimat - Förstå skillnaden mellan väder och klimat

Brougham grundskola   Hartlepool   Förenade kungariket

Describe what your team has done and tell us more about what your team has learnt:

We looked at the images of the Columbia Glacier and talked about what has happened to the Glacier over the last 26 years. The children couldn’t believe how much of the glacier had melted away.
We then claculated how much of the glacier had melted away using the 4×4 square grid. We estimated that around 208km of ice had melted away.
We talked about the glaciers decreasing rapidly in summer due to climate change. Winter increases the glacier but because Winters are not as cold as they used to be, the glacier isn’t able to fully reform each year causing a rapid decrese every year.
