Introduction

Serving as an introduction to a series of related courses (Alternative Energy, Green Construction, Green Transportation, and Resource Conservation) the 5-hour Introduction to Green Technology Prerequisite familiarizes students with ideas necessary to pursuing further "green-related" studies.  Students uncover the history of environmentalism as it relates to modern-day challenges, and investigate the impetus for discovering alternative and sustainable energy.  Having engaged this "why" information, students will be prepared to discover the "how" through more specific studies on green technologies.

Students use chalk and vinegar to test the affects of acid rain.The prerequisite can be purchased with enough manipulatives for a pair of students or for a whole class.
