MS-ESS3 Earth and Human Activity

• MS-ESS3-1
  Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence for how the uneven distributions of Earth's mineral, energy, and groundwater resources are the result of past and current geoscience processes.
• MS-ESS3-2
  Analyze and interpret data on natural hazards to forecast future catastrophic events and inform the development of technologies to mitigate their effects.
• MS-ESS3-3
  Apply scientific principles to design a method for monitoring and minimizing a human impact on the environment.
• MS-ESS3-4
  Construct an argument supported by evidence for how increases in human population and per-capita consumption of natural resources impact Earth's systems.
• MS-ESS3-5
  Ask questions to clarify evidence of the factors that have caused the rise in global temperatures over the past century.
