the difference between weather and climate? The differences between weather and climate are many. One

difference between these two is that climate is the current and

the past weather in certain areas, it is also the average weather

over a large span of time. Weather, on the other hand, is the state

of the air in the atmosphere at a particular time period. Another

difference is that weather can be predicted by meteorologist and

technology in difference climate can be predicted based on an

average data. Also climate can include humidity, sunshine,

precipitation and phenomena such as storms that can last a very

long period of time. Weather can include rain cloud cover,

freezing rain, flooding blizzards and even thunderstorms. In

conclusion, weather is the day a day climate. Can change a little

during one day to the other. Meanwhile, climate is the change of

weather in a time period, which means the changes are greater

than in weather. "

climate

climate is the average of weather happening in a certain area for a long amount of time. it controls the weather of the area.

!!Weather

is the events that happen in the atmosphere in amount of time in a day. this can include rain fall, humidity, and temperature. weather is not the same everywhere and it can be predicted by meteorologist worldwide.

SECTION 3"Causes of climate change"DEFORESTATION: It is the cutting of trees. This can be in big and little amounts. It really affects the environment because trees are responsible of given oxygen to the environment. When a big amount of trees are cutted, the amount of oxygen becomes less and the amount of co2 in the atmosphere becomes greater. This happens because trees are composed of 50% CO2 and when they are cut down, it comes back to the atmosphere. Studies show that each year, more than 13 millions hectares are deforested, which means more co2 in the earth atmosphere. "

GREEN HOUSE EFFET: is a layer in the atmosphere that trap heat from the sun. this layer is formed of different gasses.

this heat trap is balanced by the gasses in the layer but if the amount of gases is altern then the temperature can change. the burning of fossil fuels, deforestation and more can affected "

and give more C2 to the atmosphere and that makes the temperature of the earth changed not naturally."

!!ANIMAL REARING"

one not very known reason that causes the greenhouse effect is the excessive animal rearing. the

places that do this gives out the 14% of the contamination gases. What happens is that during

the process of fermentation, some gasses come out like methane and titanium oxide. this gases

are also caused because of the tons of urine and the excrement that the animals produce. "

BURNING FOSSIL FUELS: the burning of fossil is when coal, oil or other gases are burned to

create energy or any other resource. this makes the gases burned release Co2 and more gases that

in a big a mount of them arent good for the environment. this also can cause a bigger greenhouse

effect or even acid rain. "

VOLCANIC ERUPTION: A volcano eruption gives out many destructive gasses into the

atmosphere. the most destructive one is sulphur dioxide. in the higher part of the atmosphere,

the sulphur dioxide converts into stratospheric pollution that takes years to disappear. when

there is pollution caused by volcanic eruptions, reflect the solar energy back to space, making the

climate in earth cooler. when the pollution disappear, the solar energy becomes higher in the part

that was polluted. "

SOLAR CYCLE: the solar cycle can also affect the earths climate because the solar cycle takes

365 days. this means that while the earth goes around the sun it changes it position and the sun

�3

has something thats called sunspots. these are black planets-size spots that are the part of the

sun were the sun is colder. so when the earth is in front of that spots the earths temperature can

change to colder." "

!ASPECTS OF GLOBAL WARMING"

BAD ASPECTS: "

• Green house effect."

• Extending insects disease north."

there are many disease that spread with warm climate in insects, specially with flys for example the malaria. his insects need warm climate to live and, with the climate change, the temperature will grow in many places in the world, making them expose to this diseases. If the temperature increases, there will be malaria and other deadly diseases in places like Quito and many other cities and contrys that disease like this are not common. "

• Water Disappearing."

• Economic consequences due to natural phenomenon. "

• polar ice melting"

the increase of temperature will melt polar ice in the arctic causing many effects. first, it will rise the amount of water of the ocean. it rise about 230 feet. the increase of water will make some coast dissapear. also man animals will die in the arctic for example polar bears. finally "

• hot waves "

the ozone lyre is diminishing contalny, letting heat waves attack many places in the world. based on investigations, the most affected place will be africa ad europe. The heat will diminish water and rain, killing many animals in africa and in parts of europe. Heat waves could affect so much to the amount of drinkable water than it could even start war to fight for this natural supplies. "

• disappearing of many animals "

• increase of wildfires"

• death by smog"

• tsunamis"

• cold waves"

• increase of volcanic activity"

• wars"

• more diseases"

• animal extnction "

• food disappearing"

!!GOOD ASPECTS: "

• new business in the arctic "

with global warming, the ice in

the arctic ocean will melt, living a open ocean letting boats to go through it. This means that

many cargo ships could pass in there, making a new route of trade from the atlantic to asia. this

means that the time of trade will be less and therefore more money to many places it had not

before. "

• diminish amount of hurricanes in USA"

• loner summer"

• longer growing seasons"

plants need a lot of co2 to grow, so if the climate is hotter because of co2, there will be longer

growing seasons, meaning more food. The co2 will act like a fertilizer, so there will be crops

everywhere in huge amount, which is really good for us. "

!• less death in winter"

the climate is getting hotter, and there are many deaths in places were cold waves hit. The most

vulnerable people are the ones that live in poor places such as parts in canada, Greenland,

Iceland, Sweden, Denmark and Russia between other. People cannot afford treatment against

flues and diseases caused by cold climate and they died. The increase of climate will change

theism and there will be less death because there would be less cold climate."

• increase interest in alternative resources of energy. "

This web page explains what is temperature. It says that the earth temperature depends on how

much energy get in the atmpshprere and how much of it gets out again. this led to explain what

is the greenhouse effects and why do this si so import for the climate change. Greenhosue ffect is

not good therefore more energy stays inside the atmpshre, increasing the climate. "

"Fossil Fuels." University of Colorado Boulder. N.p., n.d. Web. 18 May 2014."

it explains all kind of fossil fuels and its meaning. Fossil fuel are organic materials that are energy

resources. it is form when dead animals and plants are pressure inside the ground for many years.

The kinds of fossil fuels that are talked here are oil, coal, and natural gas. These 3 fossil fuels

affect the atmosphere becouse, she burned, they let out enormous amount of co2."

the web page explains the impact a volcano eruption has over climate change. when a volcano

erupt, a ibig amount of sulfur dioxide spreads into the atmpshpre, creating areosoles. aerosols

increase the reflection of the sun energy back into space, making the climate inside very cold."

"What Is Global Warming?" What Is Global Warming? N.p., n.d. Web. 23 May 2014."

this page explains that global warming is he increase of the temperature in the atmosphere due

to the greenhouse effect. The reason of this is the huge amount of co2. It shows that humans are

not the only responsible of the increase of temperature, because the greenhouse effect is

basically water vapor, not something humankind make. Also shows is natural the amount of co2

and humans impact is not that big. "

!"What Does Global Warming Really Mean?" About.com Liberal Politics. N.p., n.d. Web. 18 May

2014."

Global warming refers to the increased temperature of Earth's surface, including land, water and

near surface air. for most of the scientific community, Earth has warmed significantly since the

20th century due to an increase in greenhouse gases that trap heat on Earth."

!!SECTION 6:"

everyone in the earth knows climate has change dramatically. you can see the

effects everywhere and its all over the news. scientist investigate and came to the

conclusion that the problem is how Co2 is increasing. this is why there is global

warming. climate change it is happening, but there are people who say that humans

are not responsable of this change. most of the people believe we have to do

something about it, but because of this other type of people, we don’t make

anything about it. we make a lot of important stuff for ourselves that leave Co2

into the air, and i my opinion most of the population is selfish. also big companies

that gives many co2 say that humans doesn't affect and that is natural. this 2 causes

make the people careless about the situation and they don’t give importance. the

solution i will give to solve this problem that affect manny people everyday and ti

would affect the earth n the future, is by increasing the knowledge to people and to

big companies. we could offer alternatives to the companies in order to decrease

co2. give talks to big companies and investigate of how we could decrease it. also

we could decrease this by increasing the amount of electrical cars because cars give

a lot of pollution everyday, every minute in every city in the world. if car companies

would make more electric cars, in the future people would contaminate less.

another solution we could do is riding a bicycle or sharing cars with more people,

and this we would achieve by increasing the knowledge. humans are selfish with

this situation, but is not our fault, the thing is we have to know the problems this

is causing to us and what will cause to our home now and in the future. people have

to know about this and we could make a significant impact on our world. "

!!!In my opinion climate change is a terrible thing that is happening.

Many of its causes are happening because of humans fault. many big

industries of the world use the burning of coal to get energy for

their power plants. Burning coal is a big causer of the execs of C02

in the atmosphere. All of this makes the earth have a bigger

greenhouse effect and make the earth warmer. Also there now a days

there are overpopulation in may places around the world. over

population also causes climate changes because there are more cars

that emit smog and that contains gases that also make a bigger

greenhouse effect. another thing is that many countries are draining

petroleum and selling it to other countries and this countries burn

this fossil fuels causing more and more C02.The reasons why i think

think that humans aren’t trying to stop climate change is because

first, this big industries have a lot of power over the world and they

make people believe that they aren’t causing climate change by

paying a lot of money so pole wont protest a giants them. Also i

think that people don’t believe that one person can make a big

change, so they are afraid to step out alone. But if someone hows

people how climate is really changing the world they would hop to

stop it.

storms we see everyday, the natural disasters and even the rain we have on cold days. knowing the climate is so important because climate can produce disaster to the population, and even cause deaths. There are about 2000 people that died each year between cold waves and hot waves. Also there are a lot of deaths in hurricanes or tornadoes. All of this is climate, and this shows how imporntat it is for our world. Also climate is affected by our actions like we explained before with the greenhouse . "

!ESSAY: "

HOW DO WE KNOW CLIMATE CHANGE IS HAPPENING?"

Is really easy to know that there is a change in our current climate. We can see out the window and see hot climate almost every time. Also the news shows that there is not a cold climate in parts of the world. This proves climate is hot and is changing, during this investigation, we came to the conclusion that humans are the cause of this climate change and, because of the co2 in the atmosphere, the climate will arise. Based on a investigation made by Dr: Chris harrison in harvad, the climate will arise because there is more co2 in the atmosphere that it can hold, leaving more heat trapped inside. This types of investigations show how we can see the change. "

Snow ball earth theory: this theory states that for million of years the earth was covered all in ice. All poles and tropics it is supposedly said that this happened over 650 million of years. There were huge glaciers all over the world. "

!Green house earth theory: "

Is a theory that states that earth has gone into a hot period were ice shrunk or completely disappears. One of this example happened after snowball earth and resulted as an explosion known as the cambrian explosion. "

!Climate in earth has been changing a lot over the past million of years. There has been times when earth has been very hot or very cold. In the time period of snowball earth, earth was entirely covered in ice and after that greenhouse earth came and an explosion called Cambrian explosion happened changing climate from ice cold to hot making earth a place for living creatures. this is a clear example of climate change. Since that time, the climate has been changing constantly but not drastically. There are times in years were there are hot and cold waves heating parts of the earth, but the climate doesn't change drastically. By now, scientist believe we are going into a cold era, but as we can see, we have a hot climate and that is because the greenhouse effect. "

There are many things that can help to stop global warming. Even thought Ecuador is one of the countries that doesn't create a big impact in it every little change counts. First in Ecuador there are a lot of fossil fuels being burned and sell to another countries, a way to stop a big amount of carbon dioxide emission are by stop burning fossil fuels and stop selling them. We all know that by that the economy of the country will go down so its better if the do the same but in little amounts that way the economy doesn't go down and it helps the planet. And a way to use alternatives to change the energy source is having solar panels. At first they might be a little expensive but the effect is long lasting and it would really help to stop emissions of greenhouse gases. Each house in the city can be build in a way that each one has their own panel and by that create their own light. Another thing that can bring the carbon dioxide curb down it can be not cutting trees. In Ecuador there are many acres of trees. And people are cutting them, but instead of doing that they can create more acres by not cutting the ones that are planted and planting more so the trees, this will help to take the carbon dioxide and create more oxygen. Also we can make a campaign that would make people to start using and classification of the trash so this way its going to be easier to recycle. In each street there is going going to be three huge garbage cans in which the garbage will go in but it cant go out. Another thing that we can do to help stop climate change is normal light bulbs use too much energy so you can change to a fluorescent light bulb and that way it is going to use less energy. Also using too much hot water uses too much energy so we have to stop using so much hot water. Also to stop greenhouse gases emissions we can change our energy sources from non -renewable to renewable. And people can change their to hybrid and electric cars. This are some ways we can help stop climate change
