Process Journal December 3rd

Today we watched a video about Global Warming and the Greenhouse Effect. It contained very detailed explanations of how the Global Warming works and evidence of the process. These are some facts I learned:
- Global Warming has caused sea levels to rise, heat waves, severe droughts, melting ice and snow, change in precipitation patterns and the climate generally.
- Seasons have become unsettled and the increase in warm temperatures can cause deadly disease epidemics like the West Nile disease.
- Sea level and temperature rise can cause terrible natural disasters.
- People are spreading nitrogen in the air which disturbs the supplying of oxygen by trees.
2 things we can do to be ready for Global Warming:
1. We can start preparing for climate change.
2. We can reduce our carbon dioxide wastes and save energy.
I think we watched this movie so that we get into more depth on the effects of Global Warming.
This document was also very current and explaining what's happening in the world right now. We learned a lot more facts and examples from this video that we had no idea from before. Now we have a wide range of knowledge about the Greenhouse Effect and Global Warming. We can use this information in our final project video. I liked to watch the movie. It was interesting to learn even more about Global Warming. I feel like it was rewarding because now I know a lot more. Next we will use our understanding in the final project.
