This activity should be considered the culmination of all the weeks you have studied thus far. Each week we have taken the opportunity to consider how the Earth exists and also explore how/why the Earth is not a static sphere. Also evident is how humans are impacting the Earth.
When all these impacts are compounded and considered, the unfortunate outcome is that humans are having a negative impact on the Earth System, and consequently, are causing rapid global climate changes. Climate change in and of itself is a natural process and has occurred numerous times in Earth’s history.
However, the rate at which the Earth’s climates are changing is unprecedented and has been attributed to man’s behaviors on our planet.
Please use the following link to select a climate for your project. http://www.blueplanetbiomes.org/climate.htm Specifically, scroll down to the section titled: Three Basic Climate Groups and you may select any climate listed under groups I, II, or III.
You will create a power point displaying your chosen climate. Be sure to reference your syllabus for the specific requirements of the assignment.
