Environmental A Pollutant's Tale   A Pollutant's Tale - Lecture demonstration on SOS2     Subject Environmental Level Upper secondary Language English Type Experiments, mathematical modle and notes   A "Pollutant's Tale" is a lecture demonstration for secondary schools and others that initially discusses the structure of the Earth's atmosphere (in comparison with the planets) and its chemical composition before examining the causes and consequences of global warning, and finishes with some predictions based on latest model results. Practical demonstrations chosen to enthuse, educate and excite school audiences punctuate the talk.     Contact details   Name Tim Harrison Dudley Shallcross Email t.g.harrison@bristol.ac.uk d.e.shallcross@bristol.ac.uk       Last update: 17 July 2007 More Environmental Teaching Ideas  •  Reducing Emission (http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Science_on_Stage/SEM1ZHXXV2F_0.html)  •  The Windcar Project (http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Science_on_Stage/SEM2IJXXV2F_0.html)  •  Drops of Life (http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Science_on_Stage/SEM9LJXXV2F_0.html)  •  Renewable Energy - The Grätzel Cell (http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Science_on_Stage/SEM2FKXXV2F_0.html)  •  The Polluting Effects of Detergents on Moss (http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Science_on_Stage/SEMZHLXXV2F_0.html)  •  Ecological Development Project of Buzau County (http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Science_on_Stage/SEMJYLXXV2F_0.html)  •  Eduspace (http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Science_on_Stage/SEMXH9D4VUE_0.html) Online material  •  Carbon Dioxide Related Experiments (http://www.chemlabs.bristol.ac.uk/outreach/chemnet/Chemnet_resources/Experiments_with_Carbon_Dioxide.pdf)  •  Mathematical model of the atomsphere (http://www.chm.bris.ac.uk/acrg/model/simple_climate_model/prediction_model.html)  •  Notes on ozon depletion and climate change (http://www.chemlabs.bristol.ac.uk/outreach/resources/Atmos.html) Download  •  A Pollutant's Tale PDF (http://esamultimedia.esa.int/docs/scienceonstage/UK_ Harrison_Pollutants_tale.pdf)
