How will sea level and weather changes relate to possible weather change?

How will the rise in sea level impact humans in the future?

How ill the melting of glaciers impact our ocean, ocean life, and human life?

Will the melting ice trigger a ice age? how are ice cores used to measure historical climate change?

What are some solutions to global warming (in a prospective of a hydrometerologist)

please include statistics, facts, and sources. THANKS!

Umm, that info is all available but you will have to write your own paper.
Check the IPCC and the Hadley Centre sites.

What are the effects of Man on the ecosystem with emphasis on examples of international importance (tropical rain forests, oceans, important rivers)

1) In Which community would organisms mostly likely have evolved to respond to different photoperiods?
a. coral reef
b. savanna
c. temperate forest
d. abyssal

2) Moving along altitudinal and latitudinal gradients, you’ll find the same sequence of biomes. There are equivalent changes along the gradient in which of the following except
a. temperature
b. humidity
c. vegetation
d. day length

3) Which would be most helpful in solving the world’s environmental problems?
a. increased agricultural productivity
b. increased life expectancy
c. more food from the oceans
d. decreased human birth rates
I don’t think it’s a or b but i’m not sure.

Last question: The pattern of dispersion for a certain species of kelp is clumped. The pattern for a species of snail living on the kelp would be…

I love nature and its beauty. The mountains, lake, oceans, plains, and everything else in the world amaze me how much nature is valuable to us. The thing about my question is just asking for a opinion on what is a great college major that would be good for natural environment. By the way I am a sophomore at high school, but I am just planning on what is a good future for me. Also I love to film nature at times, which seem filming can be one choice… I think.

That all schools are all enviormenttally safe? I disagree!
They have flush toilets with water, non recyled toilet paper,
syrofoam trays,filthy gyms, litter all over in the woods and animals’ habitiats, rivers, lakes and oceans containing trash and sewage from the schools, food wasting, schools are not accepting enviormenttally safe clubs to help the enviorment, schools have a few recyling bins for certain types of trash like bottles and also sinks not have having water saving thingies. Please answer and thank you for helping the enviorment and the animals!

There is so much more to the word Environment. No one ask questions about National Parks or Forest or oceans or nature in general, it’s all about global warming. I think it should be changed to Global Warming topic, or stay Environment but have other questions put in besides Global Warming, for some reason the same question is being asked over and over about the subject, look it up and ask a different question. Something besides this.

The world’s oceans are becoming more acidic which in turn are damaging shell making organisms including coral reefs.
