Global Summit Everything has its beauty but not everyone sees it. - Confucius By: Lexi Jones Andrew Smith Cara Peterson Drew Summers

Ecologist Group: Who are we? Scientists who study organisms and the environment Scientists who come up with possible solutions to reverse negative effects on the environment Conservationists

Global Warming is an Imminent Threat

Our Global Future: Rising Temperatures: °F above the present day average Sea Levels Rise: 46 million people around the world who are at risk due to flooding from storm surges. Water Cycle Changes: more frequent and severe droughts and floods Health Effects: increased disease and death rates, decline in air quality Ecosystem effects: Can animal and plant species adapt quickly enough?

Kyoto Protocol: Do you agree with the U.S. decision not to support the Kyoto protocol? Purpose: Limit the emissions of greenhouse gases. 140 countries that represent 61.6% of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide have ratified the Kyoto Protocol. The United States does not support the Kyoto Protocol U.S. is funding additional scientific research on the causes and effects of global warming and encouraging climate change technology research

Greenhouse Effect The Earth has a natural warming system because of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere. These gases are: Carbon dioxide, Methane, Water vapor, nitrous oxide, and other trace gases that give off heat in the form of Infrared radiation. Some of this heat keeps our planet warm and some of this heat goes back into space. Our planet would be about 30 degrees C colder without these gases.

Student Work:

Focus Question for debate: What are some examples of how we (society) are increasing the greenhouse effect?

It’s A Matter of Fact: It’s Up to You-Research the Facts!

A Changing Earth: Droughts Floods Heat Waves Forest Fires Increase in Natural Disasters such as Hurricanes, floods, and tornadoes Unpredictable Weather patterns Unusually high or low temperatures outside normal climate ranges Changes in animal species populations who are having trouble adapting to climate changes.

Focus Question for Debate: Can you think of a recent news story or headline that showed how the Global Climate is changing?

Let’s Make a Difference: What solutions do you as special interest stakeholders propose as solutions to global warming?
