    The 9th grade class of the comprehensive school Ückendorf in Gelsenkirchen, Germany attended a workshop on climate change at the Energy Lab of the Science Park (Wissenschaftspark) in Gelsenkirchen. 

     

    We worked on two basic topics: 

    1) The green house effect: climate change and how to deal with it 

    2) Fuel cells: the cars of the future 

    Here are some impressions: 

    First, there was an introduction on the two topics. Then we went straight to work. Group 1 did experiments on the greenhouse effect with temperature measurements. 

    Group 2 built their own cars with a fuel cell and had the cars race against each other.
