Desalination
Students will plan and investigate desalination to better understand its process. Students will experiment to analyze and evaluate the natural and human-made desalination process. They will also ask questions and define problems associated with desalination, as the primary solution to getting fresh drinking water. Finally, students research and explore other solutions to the problem of limited potable water on Earth.
The Energy Coalition will send you plastic wrap, tape, salt, and a measuring cup to bring this lesson to life.
