• 5．Global warming is happening all around us.This experiment helps you learn how a greenhouse works，and how greenhouse gases influence （影响）the earth's atmosphere （大气）.
     What You Need：
  
  ●Two thermometers （温度计） ●A notebook ●A pencil or pen
  ● A clear container ●A watch or clock ●A sunny area
