The other CO2 problem
This is a nice example of an animation produced by students to explain one impact of climate change - ocean acidification. You could link with a local university department to enrich a project like this, as has been done in this case - Ridgeway School in Plymouth worked with scientists at the Plymouth Marine Laboratory to make this film.
It would take a lot of class time for each group of students to produce a full animation, but by agreeing to a standard format (in this case plasticine) and with careful planning, each group could produce part of the script and one section of the animation to explain a particular consequence of high levels of carbon dioxide.
Uploading the film onto You Tube when it is finished will add to the sense of occasion!
