EarthViewer lets you see continents grow and shift as you scroll through billions of years. Additional layers let you and your students explore changes in atmospheric composition, temperature, biodiversity, day length, and solar luminosity over deep time

CSEP provides formal and informal educators working with elementary through university age students with sustained professional development, collaborative tools, and support to build a climate-literate public that is actively engaged in climate stewardship. CSEP also provides support for educators to execute climate stewardship (mitigation or adaptation) projects with their audiences to increase understanding of climate science and practical actions to reduce the impact of climate change. The project is part of NOAA's portfolio of activities to strengthen ocean, climate, and atmospheric science education.

The Center for Educational Technologiessensing data to investigate the five indicators of global climate change-sea level, ice mass, global temperature, ozone, and atmospheric carbon dioxide. The updated Exploring the Environment global climate change modules will provide an authentic, problem-based context for students to explore climate science issues.

Great short video showing how CO2 patterns change with the seasons. PS it mentions that there are more trees on Earth than there are stars in the Milky Way.
