CLIMATE CHANGE
2014 WAS THE WORLD’S HOTTEST YEAR ON RECORD
THE AVERAGE GLOBAL TEMPERATURE FOR LAND AND OCEAN SURFACES
AVERAGE GLOBAL SEA LEVEL IS EXPECTED TO RISE 7 – 23 INCHES BEFORE THE END OF THIS CENTURY
THIS IS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS BECAUSE HALF OF THE WORLD’S POPULATION
MORE THAN A MILLION SPECIES FACE POTENTIAL EXTINCTION AS A RESULT OF DISAPPEARING HABITATS, CHANGING ECOSYSTEMS, AND ACIDIFYING OCEANS
THAT MIGHT INCLUDE SPECIES SUCH AS KOALAS, WHICH DEPEND MAINLY ON
5. FACT: THE ARCTIC REGION MAY HAVE ITS FIRST COMPLETELY ICE-FREE SUMMER BY 2040
IN LESS THAN 30 YEARS, THE POLAR BEAR PLAYGROUND IN THE ARCTIC
6. FACT: 99.84% OF THE LAND IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA IS SUFFERING FROM DROUGHT
TWO-THIRDS OF THE STATE IS EXPERIENCING “EXTREME DROUGHT,”
IN GENERAL, THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT IS A GOOD THING
WITHOUT GREENHOUSE GASES, THE TEMPERATURE ON EARTH WOULD BE TOO COLD TO SUPPORT LIFE.
99.84% OF THE LAND IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA IS SUFFERING FROM DROUGHT
TWO-THIRDS OF THE STATE IS EXPERIENCING “EXTREME DROUGHT,” AND 2013 WAS THE DRIEST YEAR EVER RECORDED IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
GLOBAL WARMING CAUSES 300,000 DEATHS A YEAR
MANY OF THESE PEOPLE DIE BECAUSE OF NATURAL DISATERS
A CHANGE IN GLOBAL OR REGIONAL CLIMATE PATTERNS,
It's is important to stop climate change because if this continues bad things will happen to the earth.IT IS BAD BECAUSE IF PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT THEY CAN NOT HELP
HOW CAN WE HELP??
STUDENTS, EDUCATORS, AND SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS CAN ALL PLAY A ROLL
HOW CAN WE HELP????
MAKING A FEW SMALL CHANGES IN YOUR HOME AND YARD REDUCES GREEN
HOW CAN WE HELP???
HOME OFFICES USE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF ELECTRICITY FOR HEATING AND COOLING
HOW CAN WE HELP??
BURNING GASOLINE AND OTHER FOSSIL FUELS RELEASES CARBON DIOXIDE
HOW CAN WE HELP
DRIVING A CAR, USING ELECTRICITY TO LIGHT AND HEAT YOUR HOME,
AND GAS FLARING
34 BILLION METRIC TONS OF CARBON DIOXIDE FROM FOSSIL-FUEL BURNING
GLOBAL WARMING IS THE INCREASE OF EARTH'S AVERAGE
THINGS THAT START GLOBAL WARMING
- addiction to electricity from coal burning power plants releases enormous amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
- Our modern car culture and appetite for globally
- Methane is another extremely potent greenhouse gas, ranking right behind CO2
- the rate of global warming will increase significantly
