- Current CO2 levels are the highest in 15 million years.
- This contributes to temperature increase (sun rays are unable to escape earth)
- Thus glaciers melt ]]> 2018-08-03 12:30:08 UTC https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271881865 lourdes_matheou https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271882412 - Ice helps to balance world's climate
- Meltwater provides water for people and crops
- Ice and glaciers provide areas for tourism which generates jobs
- Ice caps, sheets and glaciers store large amounts of fresh water, preventing sea levels rising and flooding coastal areas]]> 2018-08-03 12:38:18 UTC https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271882412 katherina_grunerkahn https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271882731 2018-08-03 12:43:34 UTC https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271882731 katherina_grunerkahn https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271882830 2018-08-03 12:45:16 UTC https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271882830 lourdes_matheou https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271882892 2018-08-03 12:46:12 UTC https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271882892 lourdes_matheou https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271882964 - Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets lost an increasing amount of ice]]> 2018-08-03 12:47:55 UTC https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271882964 lourdes_matheou https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271883001 - Sea levels rise
- Warmer temperatures cause oceans to expand]]> 2018-08-03 12:49:06 UTC https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271883001 lourdes_matheou https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271883389 POSITIVE:
     - Easier to access resources under the seabed, such as oil and gas
     - Distances may be reduced as navigation routes may improve.
NEGATIVE:
     - Threatens wildlife
     - Less ice --> decreases albedo --> increase in temp --> increase in GW
- Floodings as sea levels increase]]> 2018-08-03 12:56:15 UTC https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271883389 katherina_grunerkahn https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271883706 2018-08-03 13:01:11 UTC https://padlet.com/lourdes_matheou/bsr1hpq1jtod/wish/271883706
