Polar Bear Crisis In May 2008‚ the U.S listed the polar bear as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act. The Arctic is one of the most discussed on climate change‚ due to the fact that warming is greatest there and because what happens in the Arctic has the can eventually impact the rest of the Earth. So far‚ not only has it affected the way the ice is melting and the weather is changing‚ but it is mainly affecting the animals that are living there (for example‚ polar bears). Although

Combustion of Gummy Bears Energy is a concept.� Most definitions of the word energy fail to provide its exact meaning when applied to scientific matters.� In science the word energy is a concept that expresses two measurable properties‚ heat and work.� Here is the relationship of energy‚ heat and work: Energy Released=Work Done + Heat Released The Law of Conservation of Energy‚ derived from centuries of observation and measurement‚ indicates that energy cannot be created or destroyed. But energy

The Polar Bear’s fur is extremely thick and it traps the heat so well‚ you can’t see one in inferred vision. This is good because the retention of heat keeps it permanently warm. It does not lose body heat as other animals and people do‚ and it would not be recognised by an inferred scanner‚ such as used when searching earthquakes and other devastated sites for survivors. The Polar bear would not be detected so this shows how well the bears fur keeps its body warm‚ especially in icy cold freezing

While our team was composed of completely different preference types (as classified by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator)‚ we believe that such varying opinions led to our group’s success in the Subarctic Survival Simulation. In fact‚ our group boasted the highest team percentage change in the activity—43 percent. The team percentage change represents the improvements made in the ranking of survival tools through our team’s discussion from our individual assessments. The change shows how the group’s

Changes in the Arctic climate will not only affect the animals‚ plants and people living in the Arctic regions‚ but it will also affect the rest of the world. The Arctic region is made up of the northern parts of Canada‚ the United States‚ Greenland‚ Iceland and the Eurasian continents. The changes in the climate will increase global warming in these countries causing the sea level to rise all around the world. Here is how the climate has been changing in the Arctic. This evidence of this change

distribution There are two types of tundras‚ Arctic Tundra and Alpine Tundra. They both make up about 20% of the earth’s surface. The southern limit of Arctic tundra follows the northern edge of the coniferous forest belt. In North America this line lies above latitude 60° N‚ while in Eurasia most of it occurs north of 70° N. Tundra is about 3 million square miles long and covers about 20% of the earth’s surface. Temperature‚ Seasonality‚ and Precipitation In the Arctic tundra The average temperature is 10

This article explains how climate change has been rapidly melting the Arctic over the course of a few years. As a result‚ the faster the arctic melts the more damage will be done to the ecosystem‚ planet‚ and humans. A few examples of how drastically climate change has shaped the North are that the sea ice covering the Arctic Ocean began to decrease in size when it should have been increasing in size. Also‚ temperatures at the North Pole rose more than 20 degrees Celsius. These changes are causing
