Smith College has been the focus of efforts to mitigate climate change. However, with the changes of climate already taking place, Smith College needs to take steps to prepare the college for the changes which will be coming to the area. To begin taking steps to address climate change impacts on campus a vulnerability assessment of Smith College was developed. The assessment was developed by looking at literature on expected climate change in the region, and by talking to stakeholders both on…

• Fall and Spring: the weather progressively becomes colder or warmer and much of the rainfalls occur. • Winter: very cold with temperature often below zero degree Celsius and snow covers the ground from December to March or April (except British Columbia is generally above zero…

predicted winter of 2015/16 in association with El- Niño and compare with the scientific knowledge of this topic. The media is the leading source of communication globally, with the British public dedicating 6 weeks of their lives talking about the weather (Daily Mirror cited in Gavin et al, 2011, p.423). The media’s tendency to simplify and overexpose information has often resulted in repudiated claims because of misrepresentation. However, it could be argued that simplifying information in…

Australia is often affected by droughts because of its geography and rainfall change. High pressure systems over the land of Australia often initiates droughts. Social Impacts One of…

Climate change in Wisconsin will increase the frequency and amounts of rainwater and runoff. According to WICCA “there is growing scientific knowledge about the potential frequency of large rainfalls is sufficient to warrant immediate changes in the methods used to design and manage storm water-related infrastructure.” The WICCI has determined that it is likely that Wisconsin will experience “wetter conditions and high water levels” (WICCI), due to climate change. Wisconsin will also have warmer…

In the winter time, it can be extremely cold outside. Your dog may be inside his dog house shivering from the cold. While a dog house can protect a dog against wind and rain, it can't protect against freezing temperatures. Construction for Cold Temperatures Before you can heat a dog house, you need one that is properly constructed to withstand the elements. Heating in a poorly constructed dog house won't keep the dog warm. The heat will escape through the open doorway or cracks along the outer…

Chapter 10. It’s More Than Just Rain or Snow In this chapter, Foster goes into the topic of rain. He talks a bit about snow at the very end, but rain is really the main focus. As we all know, rain can mean a lot of different things. Very often, it is paired with a thunderstorm. In this context it most likely creates an aura of hardship.

In truth climate change is real and also a serious issue. The Earth's climate has changed throughout history, most of these slight changes are caused by small variations in the Earth's orbit, but climate changes we know of today are characterized by an increase in the Earth temperature. According to…
