Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Answer in as much detail as possible Global Warming 1) give more detail on the impacts in the UK. 2) give more detail on impacts in other parts of the world 3) discuss possible solutions to global warming 4) give and explain your opinion on global warming

OpenStudy (13ziar):

@just_one_last_goodbye please help

OpenStudy (just_one_last_goodbye):

impacts from what? o-o

OpenStudy (13ziar):

sorry Global Warming

OpenStudy (just_one_last_goodbye):

OpenStudy (just_one_last_goodbye):

@iGreen @escamer @KendrickLamar2014 @Owl Buzz @malcolmmcswain

OpenStudy (13ziar):

thanks

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

Ok, let's look at 1. give more detail on the impacts in the UK

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

Give me some examples. :)

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

Also, thx for the tag kevin :P

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

Examples?

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

hint: rising sea level

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

hint: UK is surrounded by sea

OpenStudy (13ziar):

um normaly in winter it snow but now the snow melts faster and the glaciers are melting

OpenStudy (13ziar):

please write your answer i'll be back in about 2-2 1/2 hours

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

That's one. What about flooding? (What I was hinting at :P)

OpenStudy (13ziar):

yes ok

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

Also, I'm sorry, but I don't just give out direct answers. I need to help you find it.

OpenStudy (13ziar):

k will you still be here in couple hours

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

We can resume this when you get back.

OpenStudy (13ziar):

ok thanks alot

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

No problem :D

OpenStudy (13ziar):

bye 4 now

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

Hey.

OpenStudy (13ziar):

hi

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

So, we have an example of an effect on the UK. Next, what are some things that happen on a more global scale?

OpenStudy (13ziar):

more pollution which causes global warming

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

What about the melting icecaps in Antarctica?

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

hold on, I'll be right back

OpenStudy (13ziar):

@malcolmmcswain by the way do you know French

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

I am fluent. :)

OpenStudy (13ziar):

ok i fanned just the right person

OpenStudy (13ziar):

got so much work to do

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

I can try and help as much as I can. I am a bit busy though... .-.

OpenStudy (13ziar):

ok

OpenStudy (13ziar):

can we continue with geography then please?

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

Yes. So, let's go back a bit. What are you going to put for geography?

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

Sorry, for "1) give more detail on the impacts in the UK."

OpenStudy (13ziar):

i'll put that : In UK Global Warming is having a big impact we know this because the ice glaciers are melting and more floods occur, also the snow in winter disappears very quickly and more hot days are occuring.

OpenStudy (13ziar):

?

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

That's good...

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

Where are there glaciers in the UK? >.<

OpenStudy (13ziar):

OMG there in the arctic anyway is there anything I can add?

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

Ugh, hold on, I have to go again... I'm so sorry, I just have a lot of work :/

OpenStudy (13ziar):

improved: In UK Global Warming is having a big impact we know this because more floods occur, also the snow in winter disappears very quickly and more hot days are occuring, this is happening because there is alot of pollution in the atmosphere and there many solutions to this such as

OpenStudy (13ziar):

ok no problem at least your helping me rather than nothing ... Boosting energy efficiency-the energy used to power, heat, and cool our homes, businesses, and industries is the single largest contributor to global warming. Energy efficiency technologies allow us to use less energy to get the same—or higher—level of production, service, and comfort. This approach has vast potential to save both energy and money, and can be deployed quickly.

OpenStudy (13ziar):

Another one is Greening transportation-the transportation sector's emissions have increased at a faster rate than any other energy-using sector over the past decade. A variety of solutions are at hand, including improving efficiency (miles per gallon) in all modes of transport, switching to low-carbon fuels, and reducing vehicle miles travelled through smart growth and more efficient mass transportation systems.

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

These are all great.

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

I think these apply to both A and B

OpenStudy (13ziar):

ok :)

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

And 3! Wow, these are all really great... I actually love these suggestions :) 3) discuss possible solutions to global warming 4) give and explain your opinion on global warming

OpenStudy (13ziar):

haven't I already mentioned the solutions?

OpenStudy (13ziar):

i think i need to do 2) 4)

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

2) you answered Basically all these effects are observed on a global scale :/

OpenStudy (13ziar):

ok but here it is as two different points so maybe i need to say how global warming is effecting other countries such dry countries which are getting droughts

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

Like where I live, California :)

OpenStudy (13ziar):

is california a dry place?

OpenStudy (13ziar):

sos i live in UK

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

California is in one of the worst droughts in history because of Global Warming. We've actually been getting a little bit of rain lately because of a weather pattern called El Niño. :)

OpenStudy (13ziar):

ok interesting maybe i can say about california (just wondering are you a student?)

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

I am. I don't know if there are direct ties between the drought and global warming.. you'd have to do a little research c;

OpenStudy (13ziar):

because in class we're doing all about global warming so we also learnt about droughts that are caused by global warming

OpenStudy (13ziar):

so i think it is included

OpenStudy (13ziar):

so shall i say:

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

Probably.

OpenStudy (13ziar):

as the name mentions 'Global' Warming this means that the entire earth is effected by it and its occurring globaly.

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

Yes...

OpenStudy (13ziar):

i am writing more...

OpenStudy (13ziar):

in many different places around the world global warming is causing many issues such as droughts in California and floods, hurricanes, wood fires, storms and more...

OpenStudy (13ziar):

even though many countries have signed up for the kyoto agreement global warming is still a big problem which is causing habitat loss.

OpenStudy (13ziar):

ill be back in 5 mins

OpenStudy (13ziar):

im back so what shall i do now

OpenStudy (13ziar):

i dont know what to write about 4

OpenStudy (13ziar):

ok i'll see you tomorrow and i have to go now so bye :)
