Polar ice cap

Imagine a polar bear, sitting on the edge of the ice. He’s at the northernmost point of the earth, with family behind him. They are in sight, as the father bear makes his way across the slippery frozen wasteland. Suddenly, the ice fractures. The arctic animal floats away on an iceberg into nothingness, to never see his family ever again. Do you want this to happen to a hopeless, innocent animal? Well, it’s already happening which is why global warming is a serious issue and needs to be dealt…

Hi-Yo, Silver! Away! or Not? The sounds of multiple cap guns echo from the back yard, coupled with loud children’s voices screaming back and forth towards one another. Suddenly there is silence; you can only hear one child’s voice as he yells at the top of his lungs, “Hi-Yo, Silver! Away! For a lot of parents, this is a typical afternoon play session for the neighborhood kids, as they’re acting out scenes from the famous western T.V. series, “The Lone Ranger”. But for other parents,…

Changing a tire is a skill that most people do not know how to do, but need to know how to do. This skill can be as easy as learning the alphabet. If a person takes the time, has the patience, and common sense; everything will run smoothly. Most people will face the dramatic problem of a flat tire. If a person ever does, he or she must make sure they identify the tire that needs changing, elevate the car, remove the tire with the proper tools, and get the spare tire. In order to change a flat…

“Presently, 10 percent of land area on Earth is covered with glacial ice, including glaciers, ice caps, and the ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica.” (nsidc.org). But, that is changing fast in the modern world. As the temperature of Erath has gone up in the last century. “Averaged over all land and ocean surfaces, temperatures have warmed roughly 1.33°F (0.74ºC) …” (globalclimate.ucr.edu). This has led to many wondering what the possible outcomes for the future of the planet. This is…

Have you ever seen a polar bear? Not many people have. The population now is around 20 to 25 thousand. In the 70’s the population hit the all-time low, the ice they live on is melting due to global warming. The population will continue to drop so long as we don’t do anything about it, and soon, no one will get to see the snow white bear. In 2012, about 1.32 million square miles, which is right around 24%, of the Arctic Ocean was froze over. That is low considering that it dropped about 3% since…

ulperines. A few examples of bears would be the brown bear, polar bear, and the giant panda. The three species I choosed for the research are the Giant Panda (Aliuropoda Melanoleuca), the Polar Bear (Ursus Maritimus Maritimus), and the Tibetan Blue Bear (Ursus Arctos Pruinosus).

They are found in the mountains and bamboo forests in western china; there are as…

Everything that we do on this planet can affect how we will live in the present and future. Throughout the years of developing a better world, we have also destroyed it in the process. As we continue to do our ways of inducing climate change, the outcome of a larger and a lot more dangerous disasters is inevitable. The world we may live in may change for the worst. Climate change is a way of understanding how molecules can affect other molecules differently in an environment. This change can…

I value winter for not only its activities, snow days, or cheering fires, but above all for its simple, natural beauty. I stop in my step, mesmerized by the painted canvas around me. I feel a tingle inside me as I take in my surroundings. There is the perfect mix of blues, greys and whites as I gaze into the sky amongst the fluffy grey clouds. Amongst this painting in the sky, rings of yellow and pale orange create a precise flickering circle. The rings cast a dim glimmer through the colours of…
