Climate change ideas by Alan Appleby https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap Collecting ideas for our unit final project en-us 2017-04-25 08:19:49 UTC 2025-12-23 00:57:33 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Hotsun.png Miya- Sea life effect in Australia Great Bareer reef https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168065821 Global warming is causing the sea temperature to rise, and that causes corals to turn white, which means they get destroyed and die. If the corals die, sea animals will not have food anymore and die as well. That will imbalance the food chain.

Mr Appleby
Miya, it is true that the barrier reef is being affected by global warming, but it is not only sea levels rising. Let's look together to find out what exactly happens with global warming that can CAUSE damage to coral reef.]]> 2017-04-25 11:39:49 UTC https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168065821 Miyuki- Monsoon in USA https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168073769 global warming is causing sea level rise that causes big monsoon. then the flood happen so the flood will destroy homes. because of the global warming the polar ice melts and that causes a big storm.

Mr Appleby
Miyuki, this sounds like lots of people can be affected by monsoons that happen because of global warming. Can you find an example of a monsoon and where it happened, for our climate map?

When the ice caps melt the sea level rises because the melted water flows into the sea so that is what causes the sea level to rise.

Mr Appleby
Anant, can you find a place where people are directly affected by this problem?]]> 2017-04-25 12:52:59 UTC https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168084238 CC- pollution in China https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168094286 Because people in China are burning lots of coal every year, the environment is changing.The snow, instead of staying white, it turns into grey after a while it falls onto the ground .And also because of climate change, weather patterns are changing, the winter gets longer and it is getting colder,and the summer gets even hotter.

Mr Appleby
CC, there are a lot of ideas here. Please choose one that you can locate on a map and use for your news report. Let me know if I can help you to decide. For example, is there a place in the world that has longer winter weather (and can you find data?)

]]> 2017-04-25 13:22:23 UTC https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168094286 Julia iga_fuchs https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168112710 The sea level around the world is rising every year because of huge amount of ice caps melting. Many countries and big cities are in danger in the nearest future if we don't act.
And this includes the biggest and the most inhabited cities in the world like New York in US, Amsterdam in the Netherlands, Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, Cairo in Egypt, Mexico City in Mexico, Tokyo in Japan, Jakarta in Indonesia, Mumbai in India, Ho Chi Min in Vietnam, Shanghai in China.

Mr Appleby
Julia, you have found lots of examples of places that are in danger from rising sea levels, well done. Please choose one to make your news report and pin on our climate map.]]> 2017-04-25 14:11:19 UTC https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168112710 Dylan- hurricanes becoming stronger https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168124573 Global warming has caused the global ocean temperatures to increase, and this change has caused the increase in hurricane intensity.  Hurricanes are formed when they gather heat and energy through contact with warm ocean waters.  Warmer sea surface temperatures are the main cause of energy fueling hurricanes and making them more destructive.

Mr Appleby
Dylan, there is a lot of detail here in your explanation of how climate change can cause hurricanes. Please find a place where a hurricane has happened recently and you can use that for the climate change map.]]> 2017-04-25 14:41:35 UTC https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168124573 Eva - Amazon martine_hulman https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168129802 Scientists think that if climate change increases the world temperature by just 3 percent then 75 percent of the Amazon rainforest would be destroyed. Since the Amazon gives us more than 20 percent of the oxygen that we need this would be a big problem. Also, people are cutting down trees for homes and industry in the Amazon and this causes climate change and we need to help stop the people cutting too many trees.

Mr Appleby
Eva, this is great. Are there people in or near the Amazon rain forest that are affected?]]> 2017-04-25 14:57:08 UTC https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168129802 Rich:floods in UK https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168323390 Because of climate
change the UK have had an  increase of the number of floods. Also other cities and countrys are in danger of  the sea  level rising rapidly.

Mr Appleby
Good idea for our climate map, Richard. Please find one example of a flood that has happened so you can use it for a news report and pin it to the map.

The Netherlands have a solution  by making the dikes, dams and dunes higher and bigger.
if we don`t act the Netherlands wil be gone in a few years.This is also happening to more countries.
The high water protection program started in 2017.

Fred, what a great danger for the Netherlands and other low lying countries.

Over the time of global warming fires have become common in various parts of the content and they are becoming more dangerous.

Mr Appleby
Lauryn - this is a good example of how people could be affected by climate change. For your news report you can try to find a story about a wildfire in Australia. ]]> 2017-04-26 13:29:54 UTC https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168362404 Gahyun https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168575041 Climate change makes the ices melt. That will cause the sea level to rise. The sea level got higher and this island called Nuatambu island started to go inside the water. The Nuatambu island was home to 25 families, but 11 houses got washed out

Mr Appleby
Gahyun, you have a clear understanding of how climate change is affecting sea levels and have found a good example to pin on the map, well done.]]> 2017-04-27 08:58:53 UTC https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168575041 Isla P6A https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168580450 In South Africa droughts and floods are happening because of climate change.

Mr Appleby
Isla, this will be a great example for our map. Can you find one example of a drought or flood that has happened recently? ]]> 2017-04-27 09:29:51 UTC https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168580450 Ryo-Zimbabwe Droughts https://padlet.com/P6A/climatemap/wish/168794333
In Zimbabwe Droughts make it difficult for people, crops and animals to survive.
The rains are not regular. The ground is baked hard. When it does rain, the water quickly runs off the ground.
these thing is happening because of the climate change.

Already now fresh water is hard to find and there are erosion and floods that is destroying harvests.

If the global warming continious there are predictions saying that sea level will rise half a meter until the year 2100. If that happens the Maldives will lose 77 percent of its land area. Today 400 000 people that lives in the country  will have less space to live on.

OWN WORDS

GLOBAL WARMING IS….  global warming is affecting people,animals and the earth. Because of the heat plants are dying and animals habitats are vanishing. People are sweating almost all the time,  no matter how many times they shower. It does not help at all just because of global warming.


WEATHER CONDITION - GLOBAL WARMING EFFECTS IN ANTARCTICA

Global warming and climate change is affecting Antarctica,because it is melting the ice then the water gets hotter and hotter. Then land animals like polar bears have no place to rest and hunt for fish or any other small animals

Global warming is the term used to describe the current increase in the Earth's average temperature. Climate change refers not only to global changes in temperature but also to changes in wind, precipitation, the length of seasons as well as the strength and frequency of extreme weather events like droughts and floods.

What is climate change in my own words




Climate change is not only a change in temperature or season, but a constant change in weather. Sometimes it rain a lot and sometimes there is drought. The ice melts from the mountains because of global warming and then there won't be snow. Then there can be floods.








If the water gets hotter and hotter in Antarctica, the animals that live there, like penguins and other sea mammals will die.
