Description
This 20 minute podcast is from the CBC series “Tai Asks Why”, in which 7th grader Tai Poole tries to find answers to some of life’s biggest questions. In this episode, Tai talks with his friends, a NASA scientist and a Canadian environmentalist to try and find out ‘how we will fix climate change?’. In addition to gaining an understanding of the causes and consequences of our changing climate, students will learn how they, personally can work toward solutions.
