I read, More Acidic Oceans ‘Will Affect All Sea Life’ by Roger Harrabin. The article mainly talked about how ‘all sea life will be affected’ because of the carbon emissions expelled due to modern day society. It then went into more detail by saying how some sea life creatures could benefit from it, but the too will still be affected by the things happening in their ecosystem. The article also states that not only do the carbon emissions affect the sea life, but so does ‘overfishing, coastal development

flooded what can cause such a big disaster the answer is Antarctica. Some of Antarctica ice sheets are more than 2 miles think. If melted the water can raise atone of water. Scientist wants to discover how much frozen water Antarctica holds and how much global sea levels will rise if it all melted. After a 100 flights they calculated that Antarctica has over 90% of the worlds ice. The beginning of the world’s ice age was about 70,000 years ago. Imagine Miami, how we are all surrounded by water, the scientist

Human made global warming, a serious problem that is going on today. Even you can be a part of the problem! Today, car companies came up with and started working on Hybrid cars which reduce common emissions caused by normal cars by a whopping 27 percent, as stated by the EPA! Though that is helping the greenhouse gas boost in our atmosphere. Currently it is slowing it down; things as simply leaving your iPhone plugged in adds up to damaging the environment. During 2013, the amounts of greenhouse

We’re Thinking about Climate Change Wrong Climate Change. Also known as global warming, is the irreversible end that we will face if we do not change our ways. The effects of climate change have already started to take effect. Over 50% of The Great Barrier Reef is dead over the past two years. Natural disasters are becoming more frequent such as Hurricane Harvey and Cyclone Debbie. With all these natural disasters taking place, it begs the question, why do some people still don’t believe that climate

As global climate change becomes a bigger and a more prominent problem, we realize change must come sooner or later. Many people will point at many different solutions out or problems to when it comes to climate change. But we must realize we are the cause of the main factor to this horrific event taking place at this very moment. So what could we do to help our very own planet? Many things could involve like keeping the community clean, preserving more resources and reusing them. But what could

Applying Sociological Concepts Climate change is the process in which the earth’s climate changes gradually over time. We are seeing the affects of climate change everywhere as the temperature continues to increase and results in consequences such as the melting of glaciers. The melting of the glaciers has caused a significant increase of water in oceans which severely affects many organism’s natural habitats. According to NASA many scientists agree that the main cause of this is the

The planet goes through normal intervals of warmer and colder climates. However, since the start of the industrial revolution humans have had an undeniable effect on the environment. One area of our planet that has been feeling the strain of anthropogenic causes is the Arctic. Arctic ice sheets have been gradually melting and this can have a profound effect on sea functions and sea life. The Arctic sea is made of old thick ice that forms in the Beaufort Gyre, and new thin seasonal ice. This old ice

Answering to the dark The musky smoke smell of the bitter air filled my lungs. But the smell is familiar as any in this hell of a city and either way this is the new age and only the tiger class gets the real clean air, the rest of us are just here, left to die. But we have to be contained in the new era because we are all the ancestors of the rebels that caused the downfall of the 45th century, so we need to be “contained”. Although the conditions are not even close to surviving I am okay, so don’t

Ocean Sequestration: Carbon concentration in atmosphere is growing every day, the ocean acts as a largest sink for the human emitted CO2, also discharging CO2 directly to the ocean would accelerate the ongoing, but slow, natural processes by which over 90% of present-day emissions are currently entering the ocean indirectly and would reduce both peak atmospheric CO2 concentrations and their rate of increase.(Howard J. Herzog Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Energy Laboratory). Layers of
