Climate Change
Climate effected by Global warming
Summary of issue and Background
Many countries had an impact that will effect the climate change by burning to much fossil fuel, Cutting down trees and intensive farming.
Statistics
- The planet's average surface temperature has risen about 1.62 degrees Fahrenheit (0.9 degrees Celsius) since the late 19th century, a change driven largely by increased carbon dioxide and other human-made emissions into the atmosphere.
- The oceans have absorbed much of this increased heat, with the top 700 meters (about 2,300 feet) of ocean showing warming of more than 0.4 degrees Fahrenheit since 1969.
- Global sea level rose about 8 inches in the last century.
- Causes
- Changes in the reflectivity of earth’s atmosphere and surface.
- Human activity, and all practices that cause environmental imbalances, such as forest cutting or burning of trees.
- Changes in the greenhouses effect which, affects the amount of heat retained by earth’s atmosphere.
My issue was important because if people burns to much fossil fuels it can effect the weather conditions to change and also having an human impact on the environment. This issue can cause damages to the environment which it change the landform and also destroying the food change.
ArcGist Map
2017 US Greenhouse Gas Data
I chose this layer for my map because it will be helpful to see what countries or regions that the greenhouse gas mostly occur in.
- The orange dots represent the Greenhouse Gas.
Summary
One things I learned from this Map is that mostly the United States population producing the most greenhouse gases.
Mean July Land Temperature
I chose this layers because it tells about the temperatures measured on land and at sea for more than a century show that Earth's globally averaged surface temperature is rising.
The color on the map represents the temperature.
Summary
In many region their’s a high and low temperature base on the land temper.
USA Drought Intensity 2000-Present
I chose this layers because it show major droughts in the distant past, while some more recent dry periods are still within living memory, such as the Dust Bowl of the 1930s or the drought of the 1950s.
The drought show the high or low temperature in part of the land.
Summary
One thing I Know about this map is that mostly each countries has low drought temperature.
Global, National or local Connection
This issue was important to a specific regions because It will cause a lot of harm to the population and the environment. It will impact the decline of agricultural crops, and consequently the low proportion of food stocks, Many animal and plant species are being driven to extinction and also the climate disasters are increasing such as floods, droughts and storms.
Climate, Agriculture and the Challenges Ahead
Solution
To solve this issue we need to actively remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere or offset its effects and avoid the worst consequences of climate change, we’ll need to reach “net zero” carbon emissions. People should recycle your home’s waste newsprint, cardboard, glass and metal.
Reflection
I chose this topic because I just want to learned what type of things cause the climate change. The things I learned from this project is that the amount of extreme weather events, such as wildfires, heat waves, and strong tropical storms are the climate change affection. I hope my audience will learned more about my project and also I want my audience to helps keeping our environment safer from destroying them.
