Interview of 5’ in total.

Presentation
Well, today at "Earth is our home" we are going to talk about the trending topic of the week "Global warming".

+ (Efrain)
In my opinion the global warming isn’t as bad as most of people believe. Maybe if more people think objectively, they will find that the melting of the polar ice caps have a good function because frozen regions of the earth may experience more plant growth. Also it could bring longer growing seasons to increase agricultural production in same areas. The impact of this may affect some species and may extinct them, but it is a natural process, like dinosaurs once extinct, maybe is time for other species to extinct.
Scientists have been quick to claim that global warming will cause more severe storms and a rise in hurricanes and all that sort of severe weather. But a brand new study in the journal Geophysical Research Letters suggests that it might actually be the opposite. The researchers suggest that warmer temperatures will actually decrease the amount of hurricanes.

Day by day our planet earth is being destructed and affected by one of the most important and concerning issues, global warming. Many scientists and researchers have shown and proved the great number of disadvantages that this problem is causing and will cause in a near future. The main problem of global warming is the lack of consciousness among the people, and the careless attitude they take toward this topic. It is very important to be aware of the bad effects and the great damages and destructions this issue will certainly bring to human kind.

Global warming kills tons of polar bears, ice melts so badly that the polar bears cant find land and end up drowning.

The sea levels may rise. Technically this may be caused by melting ice from the polar ice caps or an increase in sea height as the less dense water is less compressed. Low lying land like many Pacific Islands and

    Global warming has caused the earth to get hotter, drastic change in weather patterns, increased sea levels, the death of a specific species of plant and animals whilst at the same time encouraging the overpopulation of another. The effect is a rippling one where everything in the food chain is suffering. Man has tried to combat global warming by trying to predict when or where the next natural disasters (hurricanes, storms, tsunamis, floods, droughts and others) will occur. But though at times we know and we try to put measures in place, we are still unaware of the magnitude of effect it would have on us and the environment, as well as, our predictive machines sometimes fail to give early…

    Through the research I’ve done on global warming it appears to me that there is no problem with it at all, and that there is nothing to worry about. We need to accept that fact that global warming is actually helping the human race in many different ways. For examples the environment is warming up, the ocean levels are rising, and the increase of carbon dioxide are all benefits to the environment and economy. It’s almost as if global warming is turning the earth into a tropical paradise.…

    Global warming is very bad for the polar bears and all the other animals that live in the snow biome. The reason why it is bad is because the warming of the earth is causing the ice and snow to melt. Which means that the polar bears will not have a place to live this is already happening in some polar parts. Once all the snow and ice melts the polar bears will not have anywhere to live and they won't be able to eat. Which leads to all the animals to become extinct and there will be no more polar areas.…

    The most well-known effect of global warming is that the rise in temperature could cause ice caps, glaciers and sea ice to melt. Since the 1950’s arctic sea ice has reduced by 10-15%, and the Jakobshavn glacier in Greenland retreated by 10km between 1997 and 2007, both of which are evidence that the recent increases in temperature are causing ice to melt. This melting of ice, along with thermal expansion of water, caused by increased temperatures will lead to rise in sea levels; average global sea levels could rise almost 1m between 1990 and 2100. A rise in sea levels could have devastating social impacts on low lying coastal areas; a 1m rise in sea levels could flood over…

    The melting of the polar ice caps rids polar bears of their habitats. The hatching of the Black Tern no longer coincides with the hatching of insects, thanks to the change in seasons, so several Black Tern chicks starve. Everything on Earth interconnects, so a change in climate impacts all life. Humans, being the creatures who created this mess, have the responsibility not just to themselves or their children, but to all life forms, to change their ways and combat climate change (An Inconvenient Truth: A Global…

    Two major impacts of global climate change that will impact people outside of the United States are first, that with the increase in temperatures the ice caps are melting and increasing the amount of water in our seas. This has risen the coastal sea levels increase flooding for many regions. Secondly, the climate change has effected the weather system. Storms are becoming more powerful and more destructive, on land and out at the sea as they approach the coasts. With the increase in power and destruction comes at a great concern to our population.…

    * As the ice caps melt, many species who live in that area will become extremely endangered or extinct. Species such as the polar bear, penguin and arctic seal will find that their homes disappear into nothing and so will die out. Many eco systems will break down and while some species will thrive and their numbers will become increasingly huge but other animals will die out as their food becomes scarce.…

    But giving the fact that most people don’t understand it and wonder what this has to do with animals in particular it helps to understand what global warming is actually doing to cause harm to them. There’s has been multiple cases dealing with animal welfare such as an article over how polar bears are slowly become extinct over the fact that there food supplies is scarce. A polar bear was found dead in Norway, it was just skin and bones due to the fact that there is a lack of sea ice which is to hunt seals. Ian Stirling has studied polar bears for almost over 40 years and examined them also and said “the lack of ice forced the bear into ranging far and wide in an ultimately unsuccessful search for food.” Because of that happening the result of bear ended up walking in to an area that barely had snow covering the ground. The climate change has made the sea ice in the arctic areas to become drastically low in the last two years. Polar bears eat almost solely on seals but to catch seals you need sea ice but because of the climate change sea ice is slowly melting away as records show in 2012. Prond Robertson has said “The sea ice break up around Svalbard in 2013 was both fast and very early, recent years has been poor for ice around the islands. Warm water entered the western fjords in 2005-06 and since then has not…

    For the past decade now there has been a long ongoing controversy, this controversy being this issue of global climate change. It has been a subject many people have been aware of yet few have actually talked about with the general public, as a result is has become one of the most undermined, yet widely discussed issues being held today amongst primarily scientists. Although scientist heavily debate on the subject, making suggestions on what needs to be done and pointing out the causes for climate change; we as a group need to take action in finding out what is happening to the Earth. It is only educating the general public is the only way we can come closer to reversing the damaged caused by global warming and climate…

    In 2012 Superstorm Sandy became the largest Atlantic storm on record covering over 2 million square miles (The World Science Festival, 2015). Was this so called superstorm created because of dramatic climate change that has occurred over the recent years. If this is the case storms much worse could be in store and Superstorm Sandy can be the first of many superstorms that could impact not just the United States but the rest of the world that could already be affected by Hurricanes and Typhoons. One of the most destructive parts of these storms will be the storm surge, and with both the increase of sea levels and the strength of a storm these storm surges can become even more destructive (Joe Romm, 2012). Storm surge already causes costly damage to the coasts of the United States and other nations affected by storms such as these, but climate change can cause these to be even more destructive and cost more money for the nations they affect. This storm surge might also effect the more populated area because of the unusual path of these storms that has been seen in Superstorm Sandy and that could possibly be seen with future Superstorms (Joe Romm, 2012). Currently most storms in both Atlantic and Pacific Hurricane and Typhoon seasons drift out to sea only effecting shipping lanes, but with climate change wind patterns can change dramatically directing more storms towards the mainland of countries affected by Hurricanes and Typhoons. The effects of global warming can have drastic effects on the path, strength, and formation of so called superstorms and can greatly affect people that are in the paths of these possible future…

    The earth has been around for billions of years and many issues in our time as a species have risen up. One matter that has come up is the issue of global warming or climate change. This conflict has been around for many years, but has started to get worse every year, since the United States and other countries have been emitting carbon dioxide into the earth’s atmosphere. Global warming is an urgent issue; moreover, there exists a controversy on whether humanity or nature is the cause, and the scientists who consider this a serious matter are entirely correct because humans are at fault.…

    Global warming is an epidemic in today’s world referring to the escalation of the average annual temperature. It brings with it a widespread ongoing debate about whether or not the Earth’s temperature is growing due to the emission of gasses from burning fossil fuels. There have been numerous debates, movies, and books on the rising pandemic. It may not seem to affect the world now, but, if true, global warming could cause a serious demise in the quality and quantity of human life. Many people are doubtful when it comes to the idea of the earth gradually moving towards its end, but this issue does not need to be left in the dark.…
