This activity, created for use by teachers and/or Environment Agency STEM Ambassadors with the help of a teacher, provides the opportunity for pupils to learn about the water cycle. Pupils are introduced to the water cycle by asking them to...

This activity introduces the idea that climate change is leading to a greater risk of flooding due to higher levels of rainfall in a short period of time. The main part of the activity is a design challenge for the pupils highlighting how...

Clouds reflect the sun’s light, cooling the planet, but they can also act a bit like greenhouse gases, warming the planet. In this film, Dan Grosvenor from the University of Leeds, shows how different types of cloud have a different climate effect.

In the associated activity, students will test the...

In this resource students are provided with a table showing the efficiency of various factors in warming up or cooling down the neighbourhoods of three urban areas. Students are required to interpret the data,  manipulate the data and calculate averages. The data then has to be represented graphically. A number of...

Taking cutting-edge science and research into historical ecology, animal life and earlier human practices, they discover a deeper understanding of what water wants and how accommodating nature can...

This resource gives a teacher the materials to be able to create a working wall on the topic of water which they can build and add to over a series of lessons.

The idea behind the working wall is that the resources are used to create a display which develops over a period of time as pupils undertake...

This book explores the little-known history of how the Sahara was transformed from a green and fertile land into the largest hot desert in the world. The author shows how plants, animals and humans have adapted to the Sahara and what lessons we might learn for living in harmony with the harshest, driest conditions...

This is a data handling activity looking at how warming in various countries around the world varies. Initially it asks students to differentiate between the terms climate and weather. It then goes on to asks students to present and comment on data about temperatures over time in various countries. Finally it asks...

In this activity students are required to interpret information conveyed in unfamiliar forms: data from maps and tables, to explore the claims that "The frequency and intensity of heavy precipitation events have increased since the 1950s over most land area, and human-induced climate change is likely the main...

This activity enables teachers to introduce the work of the Environment Agency into their lessons and deliver elements of the national curriculum and is designed to be delivered either by a ...

The energy transition has begun. To succeed - to replace fossil fuels with wind and solar power - that process must be fair. This book examines the anti-industrial, anti-corporate resistance, drawing on the author's time spent conducting field research in a Spanish village surrounded by wind turbines.
