The year is 2099....

The air is hot and dry. Water sources are becoming harder and harder to find. Food is scarce, plants struggle to grow in the parched soil. The remaining humans and animals fight for existence. Life is a continous struggle. 

 

Climate Change. 

 

That description may have been an exaggeration, but climate change is happening now. We can see the changes happening before our eyes. Climate change is any observable change in the climate over a period of time, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). We have observed dramatically rising air temperatures, warming oceans, and shrinking glaciers.

 

These are facts. 

 

What can we do about it? Do we accept our fate? Or do we make some changes?  Your goal for this webquest is to gain awareness of the changes occuring on our plant. You will be doing research into climate change to find out what is happening and where,  and you will develop ways that we can potentially help reduce the effects of climate change. For the final part of the assignment, you will find a way that YOU PERSONALLY can make a change to the earth, no matter how small that change may be.

 

We may be part of the problem, but we can also be part of the solution.
