Humans take part in why earths temperatures change so much. They have a part in temperature change because when we make things in factories that make co2 and that co2 makes it were the suns heat and gases bounce of the co2 and back into the earth. When humans affect earths systems they have created the greenhouse affect. The greenhouse affect is where all of the sun's heat and radiation goes into the earths atsmophere it can't leave hence making the world hot and humid just like a greenhouse. A lot of this happen because people use cars, make things in factories, and just pretty much when anyone messes with fossil fuels. ]]> 2017-01-23 13:06:43 UTC https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/148690050 2021_colton_george https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/148690113 Human activities affect Earth's systems by the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is the trapping of sun's warmth in Earth's atmosphere because of the transparency of the atmosphere from the sun's radiation. The greenhouse effect use to be a good thing but now it is not because it is warming up the Earth too much and causing global warming. But without the greenhouse effect, the Earth would be just like the moon. One side of the moon is extremely hot and one side of the moon is extremely cold because it has no greenhouse effect controlling the atmosphere and bringing in the right amount of temperatures. ]]> 2017-01-23 13:07:00 UTC https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/148690113 2021_zachary_levasseur https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/148690124 Humans affect the Earth's systems because of many different reasons. One reason is greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gasses affect the Earth's system by releasing heat. So the temperature will rise. A few ways you could be participating to make this happen is driving cars, burning coal. Also the heat can turn into radiation. The reason why is because of all the CO2 gasses.]]> 2017-01-23 13:07:03 UTC https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/148690124 2021_trevor_holdridge https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/148690584 natural resources are organic elements used by humans that is normally found in the ground.]]> 2017-01-23 13:08:51 UTC https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/148690584 2021_sydney_saulnier https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/148690601 A lot on how human activities affect Earth's systems, is how we contribute to polluting the air. By driving everywhere can pollute the air, also not recycling is bad for the earth trash just build up in landfills and doesn't go anywhere. also over using our natural resource. ton of our water is going to waste, and by keeping the light on light while your not in a room. or blasting the heat could cost you a lot of money and is wasting or natural resources.

Some of these activities include driving, polluting, and burning fossil fuels. These actions cause there to be an extra layer of Co2 in the atmosphere. The Co2 then absorbs and reflects sun light causing the earth´s atmosphere to become hot.]]> 2017-01-23 13:11:54 UTC https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/148691323 2021_colton_george https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/148691870 Causal is a relationship where one variable directly causes the other variable to change. Correlation is a relationship between two variables that may be indirectly linked but one does not cause the change in the other. Lots of human activities are causal actions and some are correlational actions. For example in a national park, as a causal action, if humans get rid of all the wolves in the park, then there will be a higher elk population because wolves eat elk. As a correlation action, if humans reintroduce wolves to the park and then more Aspen tree grow it does not mean that the wolves are the reason why the population of Aspen tree increased.]]> 2017-01-23 13:13:50 UTC https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/148691870 2021_colton_george https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/148693924 A carbon footprint is a mark you leave behind or a way you change Earth in a negative way. Humans leave behind carbon footprints all the time. They contribute carbon footprints in their daily lives. Some examples are when you leave the lights on when not in the room. Cutting down trees, eating a lot of meat, driving automobiles, buying things we don't need, throwing away reusable things, building factories, and over using fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas.]]> 2017-01-23 13:21:56 UTC https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/148693924 2021_colton_george https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/148695706 Another way human activities affect Earth's systems is by using too much natural resources. There are two types of natural resources, renewable and nonrenewable. Renewable resources are resources that do come back within our lifetime and nonrenewable resources are resources that do not come back within our lifetime. We use a lot of both of these types of resources but we mostly use nonrenewable resources like gold, copper, and natural gas. These resources are also not healthy for the environment. Humans need to learn how to use more renewable resources so that Earth can have a better system and last longer.]]> 2017-01-23 13:28:07 UTC https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/148695706 https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/186067570 2017-09-09 06:53:15 UTC https://padlet.com/chiggins16/nbx75hivkg5d/wish/186067570
