Climate Change

Aim: To look at the causes of climate change and how to prevent it.


As you watch the video answer these questions:

What is our greatest threat in thousands of years?

How do we see climate change affecting the globe?
  1.   Climate change if given time would cause a serious mass extinction, several major species could potentially be extinct or will be on the brink of extinction.
  2.   Our Arctic and Antarctic will be melting, causing our sea levels to rise from normal. This could pose many issues surrounding habitats of many animals including humans.
  3. The globe will be warmer, that poses problems to us if climate change is not slowed or better, stopped; the temperatures might rise to an unlivable state.
  4.   The sudden rise of temperatures will affect the climate, that could mean more drought and heatwaves; as well as stronger storms and hurricanes.

THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS WILL BE ANSWERED AT A FOLLOW UP:
