Instructions: You will need to write a 1-page lab report using the scientific method centered on the known phenomena of CO2 emissions, related to the following question:

• Would you expect to see an increase or decrease in CO2 emission in the data over the past 40 years? Why?

Part I:

1. Click on a starred location. (One site will not have CO2 concentrations.)
2. Once the starred location opens, on the right side of the screen, click on the pictured graph "Examples of Data" for CO2.
3. Once the graph opens, make a note of the CO2 concentrations from previous years to present day. Fill in the table below.
4. Repeat steps 1-3 for all other locations.
5. Use these results in your lab report to help you assess CO2 concentration trends from 1990 to 2005.

Location Code Name of City/Country CO2 Emissions in 1990 CO2 Emissions in 2005

Location Code	Name of City/Country	CO2 Emissions in 1990	CO2 Emissions in 2005

 

 

 

 

 

Part II: Write a 1-page lab report using the following scientific method

sections:

• Purpose
o State the purpose of the lab.

• Introduction
o This is an investigation of what is currently known about the question being asked. Use background information from credible references to write a short summary about concepts in the lab. List and cite references in APA style.

• Hypothesis/Predicted Outcome
o A hypothesis is an educated guess. Based on what you have learned and written about in the Introduction, state what you expect to be the results of the lab procedures.

• Methods
o Summarize the procedures that you used in the lab. The Methods section should also state clearly how data (numbers) were collected during the lab; this will be reported in the Results/Outcome section.

• Results/Outcome
o Provide here any results or data that were generated while doing the lab procedure.
