(Implementing the NGSS)
- HS-ESS 2-7: Construct an argument based on evidence about the simultaneous coevolution of Earth’s systems and life on Earth.
- HS-ESS 2-6: Develop a quantitative model to describe the cycling of carbon among the hydrosphere, atmosphere, geosphere, and biosphere.
- HS-ETS 1-2 : Design a solution to a complex real-world problem by breaking it down into smaller, more manageable problems that can be solved through engineering.
- HS-ESS 3-6 : Use a computational representation to illustrate the relationships among Earth systems and how those relationships are being modified due to human activity.
- HS-ESS 3-4 : Evaluate or refine a technological solution that reduces the impacts of human activities on natural systems.
