The Royal Society of Chemistry has launched a new resource to help students and teachers understand the underlying science of climate change

The series of web-based interactive lessons targeted at 16-19 year olds and their teachers is designed to allow pupils to explore and visualise the chemistry of climate change whilst posing interesting questions and topics for discussion.

The resource has been produced by the King's Centre for Visualization in Science, Canada, in collaboration with the RSC, UNESCO, the International Union of Pure & Applied Chemistry, the American Chemical Society and the Federation of African Societies of Chemistry.

Thanks for using Education in Chemistry. You can view one Education in Chemistry article per month as a visitor.
