This causes damage to the crops due to water shortage. This made them the second most costly weather events after hurricanes]]> 2022-07-14 13:45:09 UTC https://padlet.com/wwwamed003/6tov86wjo67cz48d/wish/2243434629 wwwamed003 https://padlet.com/wwwamed003/6tov86wjo67cz48d/wish/2243440726 The forest fires are destructive disasters that cause the loss of habitats and animals.To solve this problem humans made a plan which is backburning. Backburning is clearing some areasin the forest so the forest is divided into segments.So, wherever the fire starts it will remain in segment it started in thus making it die sooner without clearing the other segments]]> 2022-07-14 13:51:43 UTC https://padlet.com/wwwamed003/6tov86wjo67cz48d/wish/2243440726 wwwamed003 https://padlet.com/wwwamed003/6tov86wjo67cz48d/wish/2243447178 Floods are excess amounts of water that cover lands that are normally dry.
This phenomenon may happen because of: bursting dam, heavy rain or quickly melting ice or snow.
River floods occurs when there is too much water for the land to absorb so it overflows.
The flood plain is the place that is beside the river that gets flood when the water overflows from ethier sides]]> 2022-07-14 13:59:34 UTC https://padlet.com/wwwamed003/6tov86wjo67cz48d/wish/2243447178 wwwamed003 https://padlet.com/wwwamed003/6tov86wjo67cz48d/wish/2243451705 Since the polar caps are shrinking and huge amount of ice falls into the sea, The earth began to absorb more sunlight thus making it warmer. Because of that there is less food for the polar animals to eat like:polar bears, whales, seals and walruses.]]> 2022-07-14 14:06:46 UTC https://padlet.com/wwwamed003/6tov86wjo67cz48d/wish/2243451705 wwwamed003 https://padlet.com/wwwamed003/6tov86wjo67cz48d/wish/2243458102 The rising of the tempertaure causes the glaciers to melt thus increasing the water level.
Because of the rapid change, the animals that adapted to old ecosystem are now having harder time to survive.
Scientists say that the ice caps decreased 40% from 1960s and they predict that they might disappear in 2050]]> 2022-07-14 14:18:30 UTC https://padlet.com/wwwamed003/6tov86wjo67cz48d/wish/2243458102
