In the last post, we looked at climate change and global warming.  You told me some of the things you think that people are doing to cause global warming.  Look at this picture from www.epa.gov to see some of the effects of climate change.



Eleven signs of climate change are hidden in the landscape below. Can you find them all? 
Here is what you are looking for...
Stronger Storms
Damaged Corals
Changing Rain and Snow Patterns
Migration and Life Cycles
Higher Temperatures and More Heat Waves
More Droughts and Wildfires
Rising Sea Levels
Warmer Oceans
Less Snow and Ice
Thawing Permafrost
Changes in Plant Life Cycles


A lot of people believe that global warming is already taking place.  There are also people who disagree about global warming and believe it's a myth.
This week as your homework assignment, you need to watch the following video with your parents and form your own opinion.


**In the comments below tell me your opinion on whether you believe global warming is happening or if you think it's a myth.  Please explain your opinion.
