Students survey current advertising for cars and trucks on television, the Internet, billboards, and in print media to see what is emphasized in the ads. They could create a tool, such as an observation checklist to gather their data. They can then share and discuss their observations and opinions in groups. Students might then research the fuel efficiency and amount of carbon dioxide released for different types of vehicles.
