Climate Change
Weather change is a big topic, a topic that has no ending complete and to talk about.
Humans has cause lots of problems in the atmosphere. By using cars, cell phones, fabrics,
trains, burning coil, and not recycling is of the many reasons of weather and climate change.
We are all the Causes of global warming by using what we use an everyday life.
Global warming is an average increase in the Earth's temperature, which in turn causes
changes in climate. Global warming will increase rainfall, and flooding heavier, river run off,
melting of the Greenland ice sheet, stronger hurricanes, droughts more sever, and melting of
polar sea ice, all of which will increase the amount of fresh water flowing into the critical deep
water formation areas by Greenland. This strengthening of weather and climate extremes will
be the most visible impact of global warming in our everyday lives. It is also causing dangerous
changes to the landscape of our world, adding stress to wildlife species and their habitat.

In 2007 Fourth Assessment stated, based on simulations studies, it is very likely that 9099% confidence that the meridional overturning movement of the Atlantic Ocean will slow
down during the 21st century. It also confirms the scientific agreement that is very unlikely the
MOC will undergo a large abrupt transition during this century. Today's science is such that any
long-term assessments of the MOC cannot be made with confidence. The Bering Strait is the 50
mile wide gap that separates Siberia from Alaska. As long as the Bering Strait remains open,

there will not be an eruption but with global sea levels rising due to melting icecaps and closing
of Bering Straits it`s not likely that it will remain the it is.

The effects of global warming already having a major impact in the world, but one
places like in South Florida and especially Miami, is an example of many places around the
world. Florida faces major long term threats from a slow but sly sea level rise. Sea levels
already have risen by about a foot since 1880. Doing some more research scientist expected to
rise by another 1 to 3 feet, and possibly as high as 5 to 6 feet by the end of this century. This
means that threats to Miami's fresh water supplies, which already are being affected by rising
seas pushing saltwater into its underground aquifers. Because Miami is built on a foundation
mostly made up of limestone, which water passes through easily. Meanwhile, Miami's
population growth hasn't stopped in recent years, rising from about 249,000 people in 1950 to
more than 420,000 in 2013, with more than 5.5 million scattered across the Miami metro area.

Because South Florida sits on very absorbent limestone rock, the water doesnt just come up
over the edge, it comes in through that porous rock underneath, said Nicole Hammer
Hernandez, the program manager of Florida Atlantic University's.
