Positives

• It proposes an efficient alternative to fossil fuel heating that also cools.
• The maps and images make the content easy to understand.
  

Additional Prerequisites

• Heat pumps are already in use in many areas, so some students may not be familiar with natural gas or propane furnaces.
• There is an advertisement before the video.
  

Differentiation

• As an extension activity, ask students to investigate the global fossil fuel emissions from buildings using this EPA resource or this other EPA resource.
  
• Another resource to consider using for this topic is this interactive resource about home energy use that allows students to see the effect of using more efficient appliances/light bulbs and changing their behaviors to reduce energy use and energy waste.
• Science classes could research where this solution fits into the many climate solutions required to address climate change by exploring this interactive table of solutions and this article about individual solutions to climate change.
• Math classes could use this carbon calculator to determine the collective impact of other actions that can be taken by everyone in their class to reduce carbon emissions.
