discovery of Global Warming since the 20th Century. (IPCC, 2011). The possible reason for this phenomenon may be caused by human activity. The appropriate definition is explained by the IPCC, which states that climate change is “a change of climate which is attributed directly or indirectly to human activity that alters the composition of the global atmosphere and which is in addition to natural climate variability observed over comparable time periods.” (IPCC, 2012) Many countries have taken the initiative

A study was done that shows that due to the higher rate of reflectivity on ice the Arctic region will experience an accelerated rate of warming compared to other regions. (IPCC, 2007). The climate is the primary control of how ecosystems adjust to the environment, as global warming continues is affects and alters how the ecosystem coincides with natural resources and society. The ecosystem regardless of size is a vital

TOPIC: CLIMATE CHANGE The topic of climate change is like a puzzle with many different pieces—oceans, the atmosphere, ecosystems, polar ice, natural and human influences. Scientists have been working on this puzzle for more than a century, and while there are still gaps in our knowledge, most experts feel we have the puzzle is complete enough to show that human activities are having an adverse effect on our planet. This talks looks at many of those puzzle pieces, the evidence behind them, and
