TODAY YOU WILL BE INVESTIGATING THE EFFECTS THAT CLIMATE CHANGE HAS ON THE WATER CYCLE.
1.Using your SOLO hexagons poster write a paragraph about the different aspects of climate change.
2.Write about the following Climate Change concepts:
You can do these bullet powerpoint, embedding a movie , on your blog, on a doc or any other form of presentation. It is up to you.
ACIDIFICATION: HOW DOES CLIMATE CHANGE CONTRIBUTE TO THE ACIDIFICATION OF OUR OCEANS?
The heat and fossil fuels contribute to the acidification of the water.
The fossil fuels that rise into the sky get absorbed by the clouds.
Then when it rains the acid in the clouds go into the water. Which then creates the acid water.
Then there is heat, heat is caused by carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide then heats up the earth and the acid goes into the clouds.
Which then goes into the water. The ocean absorbs %30 of carbon dioxide.

DEFORESTATION: HOW DOES DEFORESTATION AFFECT CLIMATE CHANGE?
Deforestation affects climate change a lot, as trees are a big part of the water cycle. Humans breathe in Oxygen and breathe out Carbon dioxide, trees do the opposite.
Trees absorb Carbon Dioxide and let out Oxygen.
When trees are cut Carbon Dioxide can’t be absorbed which results in Carbon Dioxide floating around the earth. With the Carbon dioxide floating around the earth heating up.

ICE CAP MELT: HOW DOES ICE CAP MELT AFFECT CLIMATE CHANGE?
Ice caps help regulate the sea level and global temperatures.
But ice caps also increase the water levels and decreases the salt content in the ocean.
Ice caps are made of fresh water so adding more fresh water to the ocean without adding salt will make the ocean uneasy.

WATER VAPOUR: HOW DOES CLIMATE CHANGE CONTRIBUTE TO WATER VAPOUR AND EVAPORATION?
Water vapour absorbs greenhouse gas.
As the water vapour absorbs the greenhouse gas it stays in the air.
It does absorb longwave radiation and radiates it back to the surface making the earth hotter.
