GLOBALWARMING: NATURAL OR MANMADE? ------------------------------------------------- Saloni Gupta (Civil engineering Dept.‚ MediCaps Institute of Science and Technology) ABSTRACT: The ‘Mother Earth’ has been cooling for the last decade. Poles of the planet are gaining about as much ice as they are losing. It is worth mentioning that since past 420‚000 years‚ Earth’s atmospheric temperature is changing even before carbon dioxide emission by humans. There is no scientific evidence to back claims

The Northwest tribes (specifically the Haida tribe) and the Arctic tribes (specifically the Inuit tribe) are very different from each other. To start of thy live in very different climate zones and weather. In the northwest it is usually warm and humid. In the arctic it is usually cold and freezing.In the arctic they have to be very quick and swift to catch whales‚ seals‚ and walruses. In the northwest they also have to be very quick and swift to catch prey. They both have it hard but they manage

The arctic ocean is the habitat of the penguins we call Emperor penguins. the arctic ocean is five million square miles big to a depth of eight-teen thousand. The Atlantic Ocean runs 32 million square miles‚ the arctic ocean is five million square miles with a big depth of eight-teen thousand.

Polypropylene consist of propylene as the monomer which has three carbons and one double bond between two of those carbon atoms. Polypropylene is manufactured from propylene gas in the presence of a catalyst. They are widely used for pipes‚ containers and packaging. Nonetheless‚ Polyethylene is a polymer made of ethylene. Ethylene has two carbon atoms bonded to each other with a double bond. Polyethylene is the basic component in making bottles‚ bags and fibres. Both polypropylene and polyethylene

environmentally on track. Chretien played a huge role in setting up the International Arctic Council in 1996. This council consists of countries that have land in the Arctic. In Canada 40% of its land mass is in the Arctic. This purpose of this council is to address the different issues going on in the arctic whether these be social or economical. Issues consist of pollution‚ global climate and the Natural Resources in the Arctic. The first meeting of the council was held in Iqaluit‚ Nunavut. Another focus

Some other adaptations are that the polar bear has two layers of thick fur that cover it’s black skin to keep it warn in the freezing temperatures of the arctic‚ the polar bear has adapted to the extreme cold because their ears and tail have gradually shrunk which means there is less surface area for heat loss‚ their paws have gotten bigger to help the polar bear distribute their weight when walking across

Desert Saguaro Cactus Scientific Name: Carnegiea gigantean Habitat: desert slopes and flats Range: Sonoran Desert Observations: The shape and appearance of the Saguaro Cactus is easily recognizable in countless movies set in the desert. The cactus is a producer‚ using photosynthesis to create its energy needs. Since it doesn’t have leaves‚ its photosynthesis takes place in the top layer of its green stem. The cactus uses a number of adaptations to survive in the dry desert conditions. They

narwhals live in the Arctic. A lot of narwhals like to hide under the ice. Since they like to hide under the ice they have to learn how to either break the ice or go through or around the ice. They have to learn this because they can only breathe under the water for so long before they run out of breath. Narwhals Narwhals are the unicorns of the sea‚ because of their tooth. Not the horn‚ the tooth can be at least eight and a half inches long for the male. They live in the Arctic and like to hide

inuit have needed to understand the natural patterns of arctic wildlife. So they don’t get confused when the animals go into hibernation. During the video about the inuit. Again‚ even though i couldn’t find it‚ it seems like if you’re living with no technology‚ you will want to know when the animals are out. The stuff i showed proves that inuits‚ overall‚ are smarter‚ and more observant than us. How is global warming disrupting the natural Arctic wildlife patterns? It disrupts when the ice melts
