• This interactive resource displays data comparing the amount of carbon released per unit of energy produced in various countries.
• Students can view the data as a line graph, map, or data table.

Positives

• Students can customize the interactive to display data for specific years and locations.
• Students can visualize the change in the carbon intensity of energy production over time.

Additional Prerequisites

• Students should be able to read a map and a line graph and be familiar with absolute and relative change.
• The data and visuals are available to download.

Differentiation

• This resource can be used in math classes as a practical application of the uses of line graphs or to illustrate the concepts of absolute and relative change.
• Geography classes can use the map to investigate patterns in the location of countries and the carbon intensity of their energy production.
• This resource could be incorporated into physics classes when learning about methods of energy generation and their carbon intensity.
