The students explore and understand how they are connected to form the Earth’s climate system. They realise that different environments interact with each other, since they are under the influence of the same variables (e.g. temperature, humidity).

A few experiments on a selection of the parameters listed in the previous lesson, to understand that each is dependent on (aka ‘a function of’) several others. This dependence can be thoroughly described, but not necessarily by the students themselves.

Students review the difference between climate and weather. Scientists use physical parameters to describe climate (e.g. temperature, precipitation). Each specialist studies a set of physical parameters. These physical parameters must be studied simultaneously when studying climate. Students study the evolution of these parameters, which are all – at different scales – markers of a warming world.

By offering a clear and educational representation of these phenomena, this episode of the comic series engages students in scientific exploration while debunking common misconceptions about the causes of climate change.

This guide provides a step-by-step methodology to plan, execute, and follow up on Climathons, inspiring climate adaptation and mitigation projects with real-world impact.

The manual "The Climate in Our Hands – Climate Models" provides educators with the tools and resources needed to effectively teach climate models and their significance in understanding climate change.
