If we produce more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, sea levels could rise up to 20 feet.

Ice and ocean (SARAH)

I think that with the ice melting, some places on the earth will disappear. The ice is melting because of the climate rising.

How would climate change

brian_cheng — 2018-02-13 22:40:40 UTC

The climate can change because of the human activity that can harm the environment. For example, fossil fuel can cause ice to melt which can cause floods.

Rain-Kayla

kayla_silva1 — 2018-02-13 22:42:40 UTC

Rain can change the biodiversity of an are because if it rains to much it can cause floods or if it doesn't rain enough then the place can be in a drought and won't have enough water.

CO2

pranil_arsid — 2018-02-20 22:02:15 UTC

If too much carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere, sea levels can rise up to 20 feet forcing animals leaving on the area of land to go and find a different sustainable habitat.

Climate Change Affecting Biodiversity

yikaiguillermo_zhuchen — 2018-02-20 22:03:13 UTC

When carbon dioxide levels get too high in the atmosphere, sea levels will go off the charts, with up to 20 feet of water. Take into example a human being, the height of an average human is 6 feet. We will be drowning if climate change rises that badly. Is dying a remedy to our causes?

Climate changes affecting Biodiversity

The climate of Earth can change because human activity which damages the ecosystem. In fact such things like pollution from are cars go into the air. Thus the result of breathing in polluted air which damages our lungs.

Climate change affects on Biodiversity ~Saniya

sanya_roberts — 2018-02-20 22:05:34 UTC

Their are many ways the climate can affect biodiversity. If too much carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere sea levels rise which can cause floods and endanger animals and human beings. Too many plants may grow from too much carbon dioxide and become invasive. The smaller plants will end up dying off from not being provided their needs and only the tallest will survive. This then can affect the animals who survive off of them and cause them to die off. The animals who survive off of those animals will die off and then it continues. This wont be good for humans and we'll lose one of our many recources. Extinction and sea levels rising are just two of the many effects of climate change as it can also change animal habitats and wacky weather.
Humans are the main cause to why the climate changes. The more we humans pollute our environment the more we affect the climate.

Climate Change Effects the Biodiversity

nicholas_im — 2018-02-20 22:08:30 UTC

Climate change affects the biodiversity of certain area around the globe because of human activity damages the ecosystem. For example, when humans throw trash into the ocean it's harming the ocean which is the environment.

How would biodiversity change?

anisha_kumar — 2018-02-20 22:08:41 UTC

Biodiversity would change because the ice and snow around the world would melt, thus causing the animals that depend on the ice and snow to eventually die off and become extinct.

If we continue to use Fossil Fuels water levels will rise up to 13 to 20 ft. though it could take several hundred years. - Robert

Too much water in ocean

elisabeth_chi — 2018-02-20 22:11:23 UTC

If Antarctica melts, large amounts of water can be added tremendously into the ocean and cause flooding which might cover up places like the Netherlands and the Maldives.

Biodiversity

samantha_sugino — 2018-02-20 22:12:19 UTC

Climate change can affect biodiversity because human activity does. When us humans do something it affects the climate and then the climate gets warmer. That can affect areas that have ice like Antarctica. The ice would go into the ocean and the ocean would fill up. That can affect living things and their habitat or biodiversity. Certain animals live in places where they can thrive but if the climate suddenly drops of rises, the animals can't survive.

Alvin

alvin_kishore — 2018-02-20 22:12:54 UTC

Climate change would affect biodiversity in many ways. One way that it would affect biodiversity is because the ice will melt. If the ice melts then the tremendous amount of water that is being poured in could increase the sea level. The sea level would be increasing by about 13-20 feet worldwide. As a result, many places could be completely submerged underwater. The Maldives which exist largely as low lying atolls in the indian ocean would be completely submerged. Almost any low lying area such as The Netherlands A.k.a Holland would face serious additional flooding problems. This is a huge problem.

Climate Change

gavinyoonchoi — 2018-02-20 22:12:54 UTC

As a result of major climate change, major extinction may occur as a result of animals' optimal climate range. If the temperatures go too high or too low, most animals either wont be able to migrate fast enough, or adapt fast enough. Also, if global warming increases, then the major glaciers would begin to melt resulting in an increase of sea level. This would result in major flooding in islands or countries that are low lying. Also, if too much CO2 builds up, plants will grow more and absorb more CO2, but they would run out of other natural resources that they use to grow, such as water. This means that most plants wouldn't be able to live anymore as a result of them changing how much they reproduce. Then, once there's no more plants, we would eventually run out of oxygen, or the temperatures of the Earth would increase so much that all species would die off. In conclusion, climate change causes major problems for the world and everything in it.

Greenhouse Effect

titus_taing — 2018-02-20 22:13:03 UTC

People are producing much more carbon dioxide today. This results in CO₂ buildup. As the sun rays come down to Earth as short wave radiation, some of the sunlight bonces off Earth and becomes long-wave radiation.Carbon dioxide absorbs the radiation and adds heat to the atmosphere. More of the CO₂ means more collection of heat that leads to rising temperatures. The temperatures melt polar ice caps and increase water levels. Low-lying country and cities would have a dangerously high chance of flood.The places can have rare animals and species of plants, and the the water rising can make those go extinct. Even though plants do absorb CO₂ , there is a limit to what the plants can hold. Major contributers to this include Antarctica and Greenland cause most of the melting ice caps.

Disasters

arjun_harikrishnan — 2018-02-20 22:13:18 UTC

I think that everything would go out of control. The plants cannot absorb all the carbon dioxide and animals are harmed by the rise of temperatures caused by the green house effect. The ice would all melt and many species would die out because they wouldn't have any shelter or couldn't adapt to the ice melting. Also the sea's rising from the melting of sea ice would flood low-lying places and harm even more animals. Eventually, no life can exist on the Earth anymore and Biodiversity would not be there anymore and we would fail to exist.

CO2 (Carbon Dioxide)

clarise_loi — 2018-02-20 22:14:56 UTC

Since carbon dioxide is adding to the atmosphere because of global warming, plants would absorb it, but they would get tired of it, so that kind dissapears, until more plants take there place. At the same time, the organisms in the ocean get too much carbon dioxide, and they die too.

jasminetrinity_nguyen — 2018-02-20 22:16:38 UTC

Climate change can affect areas around the globe by having a negative effect. For example, during global warming, temperatures all around the world would rise. Although the slight temperature change may seem minor, many species aren't able to adapt fast enough to the alternations, causing them to die out. Plus, the snow on mountains or ice glaciers covering a few continents may melt, resulting in a colossal amount of water flooding into the ocean. If sea level rises, areas located low on the ground may have massive flooding or be completely submerged in water after a few hundred years.

If there is co2 it can spread and it can cause our environment to not do well. It can cause the green house affect. Light waves come from the sun and it can change into heat when it hits the ground. The more gas you have the more heat there is. We have increased the green house affect.

With the ice melting it could make a big change on earth, it could wipe out many species of plants and animals.

Climate Change and Biodiversity

caitlyn_kim — 2018-02-20 22:17:06 UTC

Climate change can affect the biodiversity of certain areas around the globe. For example, if the climate of the world becomes very hot, due to the greenhouse effect, many icebergs and ice on mountains would melt and flow into the ocean. As a result, the level of ocean water would rise , like stated in the video, by 4 to 6 meters or about 13 to 20 feet. This can affect the biodiversity in a certain area, such as in a island or in an area near the ocean. Because of this, the inhabitants would have to either move more inland and try to adapt to their new environment or get wiped out. Climate change would affect the biodiversity of a certain area around the globe by causing the organisms to migrate to new areas or to become extinct.

How would climate change affect the biodiversity of certain area around the globe?

serena_ta — 2018-02-20 22:17:20 UTC

The ice in Antarctica will melt because of the new warm temperature. The water from the melted ice will gush into the ocean and will cause serious flooding all over the globe. The biodiversity that live near the coast or on the coast will be overwhelmed by the water. This will cause them to not survive.

Everywhere around the globe the temperatures has been raised which means the surface of the Earth is warmer. This can harm the biodiversity that live in cooler area.

The big slabs of ice melting in Antarctica can over flow into the ocean which can cause flooding into Greenland or other small contries

taviana_woods — 2018-02-20 22:20:12 UTC

Ice is melting which is going to add a lot more water to oceans which then can start to flood lower to the ground place such as the Netherlands, and Oregon.
