Mammoth Steppe and Climate Change: video questions, differentiated.

This fascinating film clearly addresses the paradox: why do grasslands lock up more carbon dioxide than forests? The story covers: the extent, cause, and biodiversity of the original Mammoth Steppe; the extinction of the megafauna: climate change vs. over-hunting; the Pleistocene Park project in Siberia; rewilding; the effect of grazing on permafrost; low biodiversity in taiga forests; high biodiversity and carbon sequestration in grasslands. Plenty of stats shown in easily-understood graphics, all sources fully cited on the YT page.

Find the film by searching YouTube’s Atlas Pro channel for “Pleistocene Park: The Plan to Revive the Mammoth Steppe to Fight Climate Change”. My link omits a brief trailer at the end, the film will stop straight after my sheet’s final question if you use my embedded link.

15 questions for the 19-min film (not inc. the omitted trailer). Differentiated! Both versions look very similar, but “B” version has subtle clues. Questions right up to the end (of my embedded link), no slack time! Answer sheet. Very easy to mark. .doc & .pdf for all files.
