=== What is climate change? Why are so many people talking about it? These are questions you may have asked yourself or your teachers - climate change, global warming, and the greenhouse effect are all over the TV, newspapers, and radio stations today. In the next weeks, you will be researching climate change; what it is, whether or not it is occurring, and how it could be affecting some of the most beautiful places in the United States. ===

=== In June/July 2010, 31 high school students from a small town in Northeastern Ohio set out on an expedition to explore the western National Parks in the United States. The trip lasted 25 days and explored regions of South Dakota, Montana, Canada, Washington, Oregon, and Wyoming, along with many other places along the way. ===

=== One of the lessons the students learned was about how climate was affecting the National Parks they were visiting. You will use their experiences to explore this concept on your own by taking a virtual tour of different National Parks! ===
