Standards referenced

• HS-ESS2-2 — Analyze geoscience data to make the claim that one change to Earth’s surface can create feedbacks that cause changes to other Earth systems.

• HS-ESS3-6 — Use a computational representation to illustrate the relationships among Earth systems and how those relationships are being modified due to human act
