Full Title - Made-in-Alberta - Chapter 5: Ep. 2  "Grade Seven Science"

Grade Seven Science
The greenhouse effect is part of the "Ecosystems and Interactions" unit in grade seven science. Some students discuss their thoughts on the curriculum.

Water and Weather I
With Alberta’s weather, and precipitation, the only constant is change. Which changes are caused by global warming as opposed to natural cycles? More importantly, what are Albertans doing to conserve this essential resource for the future?

Made-in-Alberta
Energy, water and climate, these are hot topics for the 21st Century. With conventional fuel reserves running out, water tables running low, and global temperatures running high, many Albertans are finding new energy solutions. Made-in-Alberta brings their stories to community television and the world wide web with this innovative new series.
