Climate change, we learn about this in school but is what we are learning helping us understand climate change. We need to understand how it is actually affecting us in a more real world examples. Most people don’t believe in climate change. Their needs to be data and information accessible for people to understand what climate change is and how to fix or slow down the problem. It affects us in many way we don’t think about. I can affect us in the economy, agriculture, plants and animal life. I Proposal is climate change a problem? And how has it been affecting the weather lately.
Background on climate
The earth 's climate is generally defined as the average weather over a long period of time. A place or region 's climate is …show more content…
I will research weather patterns which will include the temperature of the air, the humidity of the air, the type and amount of cloudiness, the type and amount of precipitation, air pressure, wind speed and direction. I will also get professional opinion from one of my Professors Bogart, a climatologist who teaches at Frostburg State University. I will also research the climate changes over the years not just recently. I will also see how the climate for that time has affected the land over time. I will also gather data on how it affect the economy. How much does it cost to clean up roads after snow storm, or how much during a heatwave? Climate change also affects agriculture, depending on how the temperatures is depend on how the crops will grow. Each crop will grow in certain temperatures; If the temperatures are extreme it affect the farmers who plant the crops, then affect how much they get out of each harvest. I will focus my research in Frostburg. After I am done my research and gathering my data I will write up my finding and answer my proposal question. Then I will have my Professor, Professor Bogart review my data and research.
Project Benefits
My Goal for this project is to determine if climate change a problem; and how has it been affecting the weather lately. I will also have to find methods or solutions to help slow down climate change. This will also help in form and alert people about what climate change is and what procedures to take to slow down climate change. It will show people about how it affects different regions and animals in the region.
