Taylor Rock Professor Johansen ENG 105 27 March 2015 Climate Change: Plastic Pollution Of the 32 million tons of plastic produced annually‚ only 9% of plastics are recycled globally. The question then becomes‚ where does all this plastic end up? The answer is our oceans.

Climate change has many effects on New England food production. As the temperature rises the crops being grown currently can not survive the warmer climate and a valuable source of food and income has been lost. Farmers carefully plan their growing‚ planting‚ and harvesting seasons and if the temperatures are unpredictable a farmer’s crops could be ruined overnight. Many crops are affected by climate change. Different crops need to be grown at different temperatures in order to survive. New

saline conditions tolerated by various mangrove species range from brackish water‚ through pure seawater (30 to 40 ppt)‚ to water concentrated by evaporation to over twice the salinity of ocean seawater (up to 90 ppt).[4][5] An increase in mangroves has been suggested for climate change mitigation.[6][7] The intertidal existence to which these trees are adapted represents the major limitation to the number of species able to thrive in their habitat. High tide brings in salt water‚ and when the tide
