Weather is influenced by oceans, land surfaces and ice sheets. Together they form the climate system. Climate change is the change of properties in the climate system. Climate change is occasionally due to natural processes. These natural processes can include the suns radiation, volcanoes, or human influences. ]]> 2021-06-16 05:04:13 UTC https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1609236416 eafal1 https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1609246522 If climate change increases it will cause heat to rise around the globe. There would also be many droughts and heat waves, harming humans and habitats. Frost free season will grow due to the heat trapping gas, caused by higher levels of carbon dioxide. These storms, heat waves and drought will slowly harm and destroy our planet.]]> 2021-06-16 05:10:43 UTC https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1609246522 eafal1 https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1609254878 Dangerous weather events that happen due to climate change are harming habitats. These extreme weather conditions continue to challenge animals as their homes begin to crumble. These tremendous conditions are causing many animals to go extinct. Some of these animals are, polar bears, giant pandas, sea turtles, tigers, whales and African elephants.]]> 2021-06-16 05:16:14 UTC https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1609254878 eafal1 https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1609263375 The ice from the polar region plays a very important role in influencing the worlds climate. Air temperature in the region has increased by 5 degrees over the last century. These effects could affect the entire northern hemisphere. ]]> 2021-06-16 05:22:26 UTC https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1609263375 eafal1 https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1611168510 Forests are very important for our planet since they soak up high levels of carbon dioxide. In tropical forests, even small levels of climate change can cause mass waves of extinction.]]> 2021-06-17 01:22:29 UTC https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1611168510 eafal1 https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1611319674 When greenhouse gases trap energy from the sun in our ocean, surface levels increase. The warmer waters create bigger storms which can damage houses in coastal communities. Our oceans influence the weather, meaning bigger storms, caused by heat in the ocean, severely  damages homes and people have lost lives.Increasing levels of dissolved carbon make the water more acidic. Increased acidity makes it more difficult for certain sea creatures, such as corals and shellfish, to build their skeletons and shells. These effects could possibly alter the productivity of the oceans' ecosystems. ]]> 2021-06-17 02:38:02 UTC https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1611319674 eafal1 https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1611336129 Greenhouse gases are transparent to radiation from the sun, but they can block radiation from the sun from leaving the earth's atmosphere. When the greenhouse gases trap the radiation, it sends heat waves towards earth. This contributes to air pollution which is a big part of climate change.

It has been shown and proven that greenhouse gases are the biggest contributor to climate change. Due to this, we must find a way to lower the levels of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere. Some ways that we can do this are, using less energy, try using led bulbs or solar power instead of coals and gases. Eat less meat, to produce meat, farmers must raise farm animals. When cattle digest meat they burp, letting out methane, which is a powerful greenhouse gas. If we all eat a partly plant based diet, higher levels of carbon dioxide would be kept out of the atmosphere for at least 30 years. Travel without greenhouse gases. Humans rely on fossil fuels to get them from place to place, such as gasoline and jet fuel. But if we start to resort to using other forms of transportation such as walking or riding a bike, there will be less greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Climate change is happening and it is not stopping anytime soon. So we must work together to stop climate change.]]> 2021-06-17 02:47:56 UTC https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1611339310 eafal1 https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1611357597 2021-06-17 02:57:53 UTC https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1611357597 eafal1 https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1611371434 2021-06-17 03:05:59 UTC https://padlet.com/eafal1/ye40gq14nz70elq2/wish/1611371434
