## Introduction

Introduction - Global temperature

In this next lesson, we look at climate change.
There are people who still think that the environment is fine and that climate change is a hoax or a conspiracy theory. Some people do not believe they are facts – perhaps you too are a climate sceptic?
But we present the environment and climate change as something that is fact not fiction. You are going hear conclusions made from a big data climate scientist.

- Form groups of three or four pupils.

Discuss in your group what you know about climate change.
