• Includes 10 problem-based investigations that explore sustainability and environmental concerns.
• Covers topics such as reducing one's carbon footprint, developing green manufacturing processes, initiating a recycling program, and more.
• Is perfect for general education classrooms, single- or multi-grade gifted classrooms, or pull-out programs.
• Features crosscurricular connections.

Each investigation includes comprehensive teacher instructions, ideas for differentiation, hands-on student activities, reproducible student resources, reflection opportunities, and assessment options.
