After watching National Geographic's State of the Earth videos: Air, Climate Change, Final Report, and Land, what is your biggest area of concern? What can be done about it? Comment on one peer's posting.
Yes michael is it crazy. This video also talked about how from global warming coal reef is affected which protects the waves from the shore. This is just one example a lot of climate change, land, and ecological change which can change humans and animals lives dramically.
My biggest concern would be the extinction of animals. Animals such as polar bears and sharks are affected by global warming and hunting. The extinction of these animals can lead to the increase of others, diminishing our resources and effecting the environment. One thing I know is extinct is forever.
To me the biggest concern is the dust caused by the lack of water in some places because it can be seen from space. The fact the sand and dust can be seen from space means that the desert areas are growing and its results are less places for people to live and grow food. I believe everyone is correct in there statements of there topics.
I did not know what a big affect sharks actually have, I always thought they were just a really dangerous fish. Like Mari said I never actually knew that coral reef protects the waves from the shore. I went to Nassau in the Bahammas and went snorkling over a coral reef..it was actually really beautiful. To see it get ruined would be bad.
i am really concered with global warming an how the whole world could flood if the poles melted also agriculture is decreaseing an all this is leading to the extinction of animals which is very bad an i hope it gets fixed
I think weather is my biggest concern, like earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. It can be scary, having to go through them. Hundreds of lives are lost. But i do also agree with Rachel, like i didn't really know that the coral reef protects the shore from waves.
yeah i agree with what rachel said i never would have guessed what impact sharks could have the environment. i actually went snorkling in Nassau too and it would be a shame to see the coral reefs go
Watching the videos what really took me back the most was the reality of how companies are fishing. they're taking so many fish and ruining the bottom of the ocean while doing it its terrible. I agree with albie, its crazy that from space the dust can be seen, before this class i had no clue about the water crisis and it really is a scary thing since our lives bascially revolve around it one way or another.
My biggest area of concern is the climate because that will most likely have the biggest impact on the earth in the future, we need to put a stop to global warming in order to fix this.
one other thing was something a remember someone saying in the video about eating seafood in restaurants "that fish you're eating could be as old as your great-grandmother" ...pretty disgusting
im really concerned with the animals becoming extinct too... that would be really bad if polar bears were gone from the earth because once there gone they dont come back.
I agree with Mack, the biggest of my concerns is the extinction of animals because if certain animals become extinct than the whole food chain is messed up and the whole ecosystem becomes a mess.
My biggest area of concern is the climate. The climate needs to stop, pollution, and I mean living in New England, the weather is crazy enough we don't need it gettin any crazier. Know'm saying?
I agree with Mari and Jess I think that weather and climate is the biggest area of concern. All the earthquakes and tsunamis are the reason for so many deaths and are the reason why so many countries are in debt. I am not sure what exactly can be done becuase we cannot control mother nature. I also didnt know that sharks are such a vital part of our ecosystem. I'm so afraid of shark but if we didnt have them we would be over populated by carnviorous fish which is scary stuff.
Sean your forgetting that in order to use vegetable oil you need to buy a very special gas tank for that and plus it is very expensive you would be spending more money on vegetable oil because of how large the tank has to be in order to run the car. It would be cheaper in the long run to buy a very fuel efficient car.
I believe climate change is my biggest area of concern and that it is too late to do anything but move once the climate change has ended and mahoney i dont think anyone wants to put vegatable oil in there cars

ReplyDeleteYup. i agree mari. About also all of these topics have to do with the effect of global warming.
ReplyDeletewhat stinks is the agriculture is dcreasing every year which is bad because w e need our fruits,vegetables,wheat, and many other things.

ReplyDeleteYa i agree with jake, the coral reefs and all those types of things ned to stay

ReplyDeleteFirst I would like to say "M.J. you spelled destroyed wrong."
ReplyDeleteThe part that concerns me is the water because life on Earth needs water to survive if the water becomes too polluted we won't last long.
I agree with Nick, I wouldn't want any of the animals or ocean life to become extinct either! thioe need to stay! The climate needs help.

ReplyDeleteI agree with Nick and Brian if animals go extinct they won't come back and that will have a major impact on the food chain.
ReplyDeleteto reduce the pollution, use vegatable oil for your gas.
