The risk of climate change and global warming The world has been warming since over 100 years ago. Because of the global warming, the climate is becoming changing. When the climate is changing, so many risks are occurred in the world. The risks of climate change and global warming are: natural disaster, starvation and health problem. Natural disaster is the first risk of climate change and global warming. There are a lot of disasters happening because of climate change and global warming.…

Introduction: Atmospheric circulation patterns exert a tremendous influence on regional weather and climate especially in the mid-latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere1. However, there is a significant debate over how patterns will respond to climate change. In this experiment, I will analyze climate models using a specific metric called sinuosity to determine how climate change will affect circulation patterns in the mid-latitudes. This information is impactful and important as changes in…

Before taking the SoS Climate Change course I thought I had a fairly solid foundation on what factors cause climate to change and how those factors interact, how climate has changed over the past hundreds of millions of years and how scientist predict the future climate of our planet. I soon found out that I merely had a solid scaffold on which to build a much better understanding for myself and my students. The biggest take away for me was how Earth’s systems all work together and that there…

Climate change or global warming has been the center of discussion for the past years as it poses detrimental effects on but not limited to the environment and to human activities. As defined by the Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), climate change is a change in the state of the climate that can be identified by changes in the mean and/or the variability of its properties, and that persists for an extended period, typically decades or longer; climate change may be due to…

greenhouse gass emission and other factors has caused the earth to retain more energy and thus grow warmer. This change in climate is affecting the habitats of many different species who are forced to adapt or migrate to another suitable location to live. This disrupts the food chains thus affecting the ecosystem which is fundamental to life on earth. Some effects that climate change has on life on earth are that it disrupts the food chain. A good example of this are polar bears being…

Climate change is affecting not only Canada but the entire world. It is a change in global or regional climate patterns and is the change of mild to increased levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide produced by fossil fuels. I believe that climate change is something that can be eliminated or lowered with the help from everyone. Some people say we have passed the turning point but I disagree, there is always room for improvement in any situation. One way that I believe climate change can be…

could completely change climate zone patterns. This then affects Climate change. Climate change is a change in the Earth’s climate patterns and could negatively or positively affect regions such as Africa. This will result in increased or decreased rainfall, winds, snow, and other weather occurrences. This essay discusses the effects of climate change on Africa in accordance with case studies and facts provided by Via Afrika Grade 10 geography textbook. Consequences of climate change According…

in favour of influence that climate change to bushfires is that climate change triggers the Forest Fire Danger Index(FFDI)(1.book; Luke and Arthur 1978). In 1967 Alan MacArthur , Climatologist developed the FFDI which is varies from 1 to 100 and it is subtle to wind speed, relative humidity and temperature changes(2.book :Dowdy et al. 2009). It is a fact that increase of temperature and dryness contribute to the upward trend of FFDI. On the basis of State of climate – 2016, by the CISRO and…

The Climate Change Crisis Global warming is a rising issue around the world that needs to be addressed. There are multiple things that we can do to end global warming or to dampen the amount of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases being released into the atmosphere. We can come together as a community to promote eco-friendly energy sources or change small things in our homes to save energy individually. In my community, a small and fairly wealthy town, it has been apparent that people…

Running Head: CLIMATE CHANGE Global warming is catastrophic once no action is taken to counteract that as in the case of Alaska. Alaska State is the largest in the United States of America having 20% of the United States. This state also has a wide range of ecological and climatic conditions which include glaciers, tundra, rainforests, meadows, and boreal forest. The warming in Alaska has increased over the last 60 years more than twice of the warming in the United States as warming in…
