Global Warming

​Hey guys I have more information on the pdf file so If you want to just read it from there

It’s been a hot year


Hi guys!, Today I am writing my 3rd  blog post, this is for  Mrs. Dunn’s English 9 class. I know it has been a very hot year for all of us and it’s really ad, but I will continue my agent of change to help this change in temperature and make more people aware of what is happening to the world each day.

          Background Knowledge:

Over the last year, I have been informing and warned people in  SLA community and outside of it  about Global warming and the climate changes. 

The reason I picked this topic for this project is because I always wondered what would happened to the earth and what would be the outcome of it in through out the years. I also chose this because most of the people know about it this global problem and some of them don’t and I started getting ideas of making people change their minds and giving them information in how YOU can help and take care of the earth, I saw this as a life challenge. I always wanted to help    some how in some way, I just felt that I had to do something to change the future, my future. Like start using less electricity or planting trees anything that was clean and on favor of reducing the global warming effect . 

What I did

Over the last couple of days I have been recycling  plastic and changing my house’s light bulbs into more efficient ones that are more durable and environmental friendly. I bought new light bulbs that were way better that the old ones we had, I also planted new trees in a park near my house, also I recycle all the things that I could recycle from my house.  I also did a little  presentations to my Mom, Step-Dad, and my friends. I explained to them what I was doing for  this project and what my agent of change was. It was successful and over 60 items in the first 2 weeks. From the money that I make , I take away a 5% to buy more things that can help the earth and that are more environmental friendly. 

I’m still recycling everything I can I also plant trees once every 3 weeks.

Impact


Some of the impact of the global warming can be:

Greenhouse gases can stay in the atmosphere for an amount of years ranging from decades to hundreds and thousands of years. No matter what we do, global warming is going to have some effect on Earth. Here are the 5 deadliest effects of global warming.


As northern countries warm, disease carrying insects migrate north, bringing plague and disease with them. Indeed some scientists believe that in some countries, thanks to global warming.


As the temperature of oceans rises, so will the probability of more frequent and stronger hurricanes. We saw in this in 2004 and 2005.

Although some areas of Earth will become wetter due to global warming, other areas will suffer serious droughts and heat waves. Africa will receive the worst of it, with more severe droughts also expected in Europe. Water is already a dangerously rare commodity in Africa, and according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, global warming will exacerbate the conditions and could lead to conflicts and war.
