Name an major insect being affected by climate change?

Bee

Does Climate Change affect Seasons?

Yes, the growing seasons are shifting. Spring is arriving earlier, winters are shorter, and the number of freezing days is declining.

100

Can Climate Change Affect People?

Yes, Climate change is a significant threat to the health of the American people. This scientific assessment examines how climate change is already affecting human health and the changes that may occur in the future.

100

Are clouds the major non-gas contributor to Earth's greenhouse effect?



Yes, also absorb and emit infrared radiation and thus have an effect on greenhouse gas radiative properties. Clouds are water droplets or ice crystals suspended in the atmosphere.

100

Tiny solid or liquid particles found in the atmosphere.

Air

Can Butterflies adapt to Climate Change well?

Animals and plants can adapt
Corals, trees, birds, mammals, and butterflies are adapting well to the routine reality of changing climate.

200

What are seasons linked to?

Shifting seasons are directly linked to warmer global temperatures. A slight change in temperature is enough to push the spring thaw earlier, and delay the first frost until later in the fall. These environmental changes cause many trees and spring wildflowers to bloom earlier than typical.

Does Climate Change affect people health?

Yes, With climate change, the frequency, severity, duration, and location of weather and climate phenomena—like rising temperatures, heavy rains and droughts, and some other kinds of severe weather—are changing.

Earth's surface temperature depends on this balance between incoming and outgoing energy. If this energy balance is shifted, does Earth's surface becomes warmer or cooler or both?

Earth's surface becomes warmer or cooler, leading to a variety of changes in global climate.

200

The layer of the atmosphere in which the ozone layer is located.

Stratosphere


300

Can animals adapt to Climate Changes well?

Global change is simply too pervasive and occurring too rapidly.

300

Does Climate Change make:

A. winter longer

B. Winter shorter

C. Make winter come early

B. Winter Shorter

300

Does Climate Change Connect to GreenHouse gases which leads to health problems?

Yes, Increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases lead to an increase of both average and extreme temperatures. This is expected to lead to an increase in deaths and illness from heat and a potential decrease in deaths from cold

300

The proportion of all greenhouse gases created by coal is appromixately

a)14%

b)18%

c)27%

d)90%

b) 18%

300

This is the most common gas in the atmosphere

Nitrogen 

400

how much percent can cold and rain affect animales

In 2003 showed that up to 42% of species in the Southeast Asian region could be consigned to extinction by the year 2100 due to deforestation and habitat fragmentation alone.

400

Does Climate Change Make:

A. Spring Early

B. Spring Late

C. Spring Short

A. Spring Early

400

Does Climate Change Increase health problems or decrease health problems?

increased levels of illness and death by compromising the body’s ability to regulate its temperature or by inducing direct or indirect health complications. Loss of internal temperature control can result in a cascade of illnesses

400

What is the largest source of emissions of carbon dioxide, which is one of the greenhouse gases that allows radiative forcing and contributes to global warming?

Burning fossil fuels

400

What is a condition that sometimes occurs in the Pacific Ocean, but it is so big that it affects weather all over the world?

An El Niño in the Pacific Ocean affects weather patterns all over the world.

500

What is the percentage of animals extinction?

60% of the world’s ecosystems are now degraded and the extinction rate

500

Can Winter Create "False Spring"?

 Unusually warm weather in late winter can create a “false spring” that triggers the new growth of plants to begin too early, leaving them vulnerable to any subsequent frosts – trends that have been increasingly observed throughout the United States

500

What Kind of affect Climate Change have on people?

including heat cramps, heat exhaustion, heatstroke, and hyperthermia in the presence of extreme heat, and hypothermia and frostbite in the presence of extreme cold.

500

What are some of the most abundant greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere?

  • Water vapor (H2O)
  • Carbon dioxide (CO2)
  • Methane (CH4)
  • Nitrous oxide (N2O)
  • Ozone (O3)
  • Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)
  • Hydrofluorocarbons
500

Is Earth going to be habitable in the next couple years?

Yes, however we need to start reducing our use of fossil fuels and work on more solutions to reduce climate change.
