Earth Space Science

• S:ESS1:11:1.2 Explain how heat and energy transfer in and out of the atmosphere; and provide examples of how it is related to weather and climate.
• S:ESS1:11:2.1 Recognize that elements exist in fixed amounts and describe how they move through the solid Earth, oceans, atmosphere, and living things as part of geochemical cycles, such as the water, carbon and nitrogen cycles.
• S:ESS2:11:2.1 Identify the Earth’s major external source of energy as solar energy.
• S:ESS4:11:3.1 Differentiate between and provide examples of renewable and nonrenewable sources of energy; and explain the advantages and limitations of each.
• S:ESS4:11.3.3 Explain how the use of technologies at a local level, such as burning of fossil fuels for transportation or power generation, may contribute to global environmental problems.
• S:ESS4:12:3.1 Explain the environmental effects of using both renewable and nonrenewable resources; and provide examples of how man is addressing these effects on the environment. 

Life Science

• S:LS2:11:1.4 Analyze and describe how environmental disturbances, such as climate changes, natural events, human activity and the introduction of invasive species, can affect the flow of energy or matter in an ecosystem.
• S:LS3:11:1.1 Identify ways humans can impact and alter the stability of ecosystems, such as habitat destruction, pollution, and consumption of resources; and describe the potentially irreversible effects these changes can cause.
• S:LS3:11:1.2 Identify ways of detecting, and limiting or reversing environmental damage.
• S:LS3:11:1.3 Analyze the aspects of environmental protection, such as ecosystem protection, habitat management, species conservation and environmental agencies and regulations; and evaluate and justify the need for public policy in guiding the use and management of the environment.
