Group 2: Global Warming by Seow Qi En https://padlet.com/seowqien/6COMGrp2 en-us 2018-07-30 03:16:07 UTC 2025-11-19 02:04:30 UTC hello@padlet.com Kay Lynn seowqien https://padlet.com/seowqien/6COMGrp2/wish/271411138  Q1)   The effects of global warming are  making the Earth's temperature rise, causing the Artic sea ice to shrink, causing  floods to enter coastal  areas, weather patterns could change making hurricanes   more frequent  severe droughts can become more common in warm areas, species unable to adapt in the changing environment will face extinction.      Q2)    People can help by  switching  to fluorescent light bulbs, driving fewer miles in a car each week, cutting down on greenhouse effect.]]> 2018-07-30 03:16:07 UTC https://padlet.com/seowqien/6COMGrp2/wish/271411138 Joven Lim seowqien https://padlet.com/seowqien/6COMGrp2/wish/271411139 Q1)There would be hotter temperatures,higher sea levels,heat waves,more droughts and floods,hurricanes,heavy storm surges,agriculture,extinctions and long-term changes.
Q2) they should stop using plastic cutlery and boxes,when going to stalls to take away they should bring their own containers so that they will not waste plastic once they have eaten the food.They can use led lights so that they can save electricity which relates to fossil fuels being burnt

This is probably the biggest cause of global warming. These plants are responsible for releasing massive carbon dioxide amounts into the atmosphere, which immensely contributes to rising global temperatures. ]]> 2018-07-30 03:16:07 UTC https://padlet.com/seowqien/6COMGrp2/wish/271411141 Enyo seowqien https://padlet.com/seowqien/6COMGrp2/wish/271411142 Choose a utility company that generates at least half its power from wind or solar and has been certified by GreenEnergy, an organization that vets renewable energy options. If that isn’t possible for you, take a look at your electric bill; many utilities now list other ways to support renewable sources on their monthly statements and websites.]]> 2018-07-30 03:16:07 UTC https://padlet.com/seowqien/6COMGrp2/wish/271411142 Instructions: seowqien https://padlet.com/seowqien/6COMGrp2/wish/271411146 Dear Groups 1, 2 and 3 students, you will focus on global warming while Groups 4, 5 and 6 students will focus on deforestation. 

Please watch the videos below and answer the following questions: 

1) What are the effects of global warming/deforestation? 
2) How does global warming/deforestation impact humans and other living things? 
3) What should humans do to reduce the negative impact on the environment?

You are strongly encouraged to put up extra information you know about global warming and deforestation for your peers. 
Hope to read your replies soon:) 

Regards, 
Ms Seow
