Climate Change in Scotland
Climate change is recognised as the most serious environmental threat to our planet. Unless we can reduce reliance on fossil fuels such as coal, oil and gas, the threat posed by increasingly unpredictable and violent weather will continue to grow.
This site has been produced on behalf of the Scottish Executive by Learning and Teaching Scotland. Whilst it will be of interest to everyone, it is aimed at young people aged between 9 and 14 (levels C/D/E of the Scottish curriculum) to inform and raise awareness of some of the key issues surrounding climate change and the effect on Scotland.

Climate Change page at Wikipedia
Climate change refers to the variation in the Earth's global climate or in regional climates over time. It describes changes in the variability or average state of the atmosphere over time scales ranging from decades to millions of years.
These changes can be caused by processes internal to the Earth, external forces (e.g. variations in sunlight intensity) or, more recently, human activities.

Climate Change in Canada : Teachers Guide
Starting in 1999, the Climate Change Action Fund (CCAF) sponsored the development of a series of regional posters on the general science and regional impacts of climate change. Led, or co-led, by Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), the development of these posters was done in close collaboration with provincial and territorial counterparts and stakeholders.
NRCan is grateful to its partners who are listed at the back of this guide. This guide is intended to accompany the poster series, and material found in this guide comes directly from the posters.
