NASA's Climate Kids

NASA's new Climate Kids website, targeting grades 4-6, de-mystifies global climate change science using simple illustrations, humor, interactivity, and age-appropriate language.

The interactive Climate Time Machine shows how global changes affect our planet over time. Animated feature "Climate Tales" follows a quirky polar bear and monkey as they cope with climate change -- and humans. Games deliver fun and climate science concepts. Career role models give kids ideas to help build a greener future.
