Severe weather

The apocalypse is an idea that people talk about regularly in today’s society. From a zombie outbreak to a major flood, anything could lead to the end of time as we know it. However, nothing is more frightening or real than the threat of catastrophic climate change. Climate change is the result of exponential amounts of carbon emissions being released into the atmosphere, which causes the earth to trap heat in between the surface and the ozone causing a drastic temperature change and extreme…

Through this course I have seen that students learn science many different ways, but not all those ways are the best for learning. The best way that this 4th grade teacher could teach this weather and climate lesson/unit is by having the students be involved in hands on activities! If the students are able to go outside and record data for themselves they would really get to know the material better and be able to retain this information in their long term memory. They can look at patterns they…

In fact, several researchers and organizations have found this to be false. Not only does the rise in temperatures affect the weather globally, but rising temperatures also help contribute to the melting of glaciers and ice caps; which leads to the rise of sea levels. According to Erin A. Thead, a graduate from the Climate Institute, “the rate of sea level rise in the twentieth…

distribution of marine organisms has always been a main focal point of marine studies. With organisms such as Ctenophora, what role does temperature and rainfall play in their movements? To get a better understanding of how population densities change with weather, samples were taken during different periods of precipitation and temperature; rain the day before, clear the day before, warm temperatures, and cool temperatures. In the end, there were minor differences between the densities of…

Katherine Hayhoe’s YouTube series, “Global Weirding”, is a series that touches on the common myths and misconceptions people have on global warming. Her introductory video begins with her explaining that you don’t have to be a green wearing, granola eating, liberal to care about the earth and its climate. In fact, she is a Canadian who is a Christian and she very much cares about the climate change. Scientists have been studying climate change since 1820, almost 200 years now. And it has been 50…

Joseph F. C. DiMento and Pamela Doughman’s introduction to “Making Climate Change Understandable” presents an argument for climate change that denies frequent deliberate intervention with the climate by the human population but rather supports the accidental change in climate. The authors also claim that because climate change is so difficult to understand, people do not recognize it as a grave issue. Early in the text, DiMento and Doughman clearly state the purpose of the article as follows,…
