Sea Level Rise

Overview
Students looked at sea level rise in climate change. The students entered the coordinates on to the GPS as if the sea was to rise 1 meter at Mauna Lani Fish Ponds. They then flagged out the new shore line and realized how much land would be lost if the sea was to rise just 1 meter, thne create PSA about findings.
