This blog post is about Hurumanu Science and we are learning about climate change in the globe. So first of all we are going to watch the video of the climate change to get some ideas. So after we watched the video we have to answer this questions at the bottom. I hope you like it and also comment in this post about what you think about it.
Aim: To look at the causes of climate change and how to prevent it.
As you watch the video answer these questions:
What is our greatest threat in thousands of years? A Disaster in the Earth
How do we see climate change affecting the globe? Climate change is affecting the earth first of all ( Tornadoes, Flood , Ice Melting, Rainy, Windy, tsunami )
- Tornadoes
- Tsunami
- Windy
- Ice melting water rising
What is needed to change history? Change by not cutting down the trees in the jungle and not burning rubbish around the globe.
Is climate change a man made distaster? It is a man made disaster.
Dramaitc action must be made in the next __ years to change it? In a dramatic action.
Why is our climate changing? It is because of ( Fossil Fuels )
What is causing the warming trend of the climate? It is because we are burning Fossil Fuels to create more and more oil.
What is the main problem? There more and more carbon dioxide
What are examples of these? The example is the ( Nasa, Japan and also others ) they were showing the same grid lines.
Burning fossil fuels releases what gas? It is Radio dioxide
How much hotter now is our world?
What do we call this global warming?
How is this affecting creatures / animals like bats? They are dying because of the climate change and also the Carbon Dioxide in the Globe.
What percentage of species are near extinction? There is only 8 percent of animals in a cold part of the country is dying because they are in the cold place of the earth and the ice is slowly melting down in the place were they are staying. Then the water is rising up
How could this effect the world ecosystems? The world is just getting to hot and fire is easy to get when it is really how that's why in some places are burning.
What global change was seen and recording breaking last year? The Earth temperature is slowly going down. The coldest part of the Earth in the ( Antarctica ) is melting a lot and it is getting to warm in Antarctica.
How is climate change affecting our weather systems?
1. Heavier rain... flooding
2. Droughts (no rain)
3. More wild storms/hurricanes
What is another effect of climate change? Animals die
What will happen if the ice melts in Antarctica and the Arctic? The water will rise and rise around the globe. Then some country will get a lot of floods
How does this affect people? It effects people because their shelters are getting knocked out by strong winds and floods. They cannot grow food; their animals die
What other things affect oceans change? The ocean is getting a filled up with rubbish. (especially plastic)
What does to much heat do to coral? In the last tree yeas the coral's have died... the bacteria dies in the heat.
Why did some industries not want to stop burning fossil fuels? They did not want to stop because they are going to lose money because they are creating energy fromFossil Fuels,
Stop at 23.39
Investigation
You can decide on how you would like to do this investigation. Your presentation could be on the blog, slides, or PowerPoint.
Write a definition, upload an image and list where these fossil fuels are mined.
- Coal- Coal Is a strong rock which can be burned as solid fossil fuels. It is mostly carbon but also hydrogen, Sulphur, Oxygen, Nitrogen.
- Oil- A liquid Preparation used on the hair or skin cosmetic.
- Natural Gas- Natural gas also could Fossil Gas is naturally hydrocarbon gas mixture.
Write a paragraph and upload an image about each of these renewable energy.
- Solar- Solar is a metal that absorbed sun heat and make an energy out of it. Then the energy goes to our shelters and then we can use electricity in our homes. We use the electricity to turn lights and also use technology in the country.
- Wind- Wind we also use winds to create electricity. By using a windmill creates an electricity when the wind is so fast at spinning and it will create lot so electricity.
- Waves- Waves Involve the transport of energy without the trans port of mater. In conclusion, a wave can be describe as disturbance that ravels through a medium, transporting energy from one location it's source. To another location without location without transporting matter.
- Hydro- Hydro is a form of renewable energy that uses the water in dams, as well as following in river to create electricity. In hydro power plants the rotating blades spin a generator that converts the mechanical energy of the spinning turbine into electrical.
Write a 6 sentence reflection about what you have learnt about Climate Change and how it is going to affect us.
In climate change I have learnt lots and lots of new things that I haven't known before. So some of this is just new for me because some of it can't understand it because of the words that we heard from the video that we have watched. So I didn't really know that they use rivers to create electricity and that is the one fact that I did not know before.

To support my learning I ask you to comment as follows:
1. Something positive - something you like about what I have shared.
2. Thoughtful - A sentence to let us know you actually read/watched or listened to what I had to say
3. Something helpful - how have you connected with my learning? Give me some ideas for next time or ask me a question.
