I am a high school Earth Science teacher. This is a good resource to use as supplemental material to a lesson. This resource includes an interactive map.
Partial alignment by covering only the temperature change part of standard EEn2.6.4 , 2.1.4 (geohazards, droughts, flooding), and EEn 2.4.1 (wastewater treatment).
No learning objectives have been indicated in the resource
Has clear assessment strategies that will accurately measure student progress of the specified standards, but needs additional formative and/or summative strategies
The content is appropriate to add to a lesson on climate change.
This case study would need to be added to a lesson to be adequate for the standards.
