Global Warming Extensions Project
By: Grace Step #1- Things I Learned During Step #1 I learned about the greenhouse effect. I watched a video on global warming and the greenhouse effect.I learned that when the suns radiation hits our atmosphere, some goes back into space and some goes through and reaches the Earth and makes the Earth's surface warm up. Then, heat from the atmosphere is radiated outward and is obsorbed by "greenhouse gases" in the atmosphere. This process keeps the Earth warm enough to sustain life. This is called the Greenhouse Effect. Some human actions, like burning fossil fuels, send extra greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. These gases are carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide.

During Step #2 I learned about the causes and effects of global warming. Making the poster really helped me understand global warming a little better. When I learn about things, I like to be able to have a visual aid to help me conncet and understand the topic. During this step, the posters were my visual aid. I also think I learned a lot during this step I could really picture the global warming happening in real life on and around the Earth.

3 reasons-Global Warming Reflection
Three reason that cause global warming are Those were my three causes I found for global warming. I think the biggest effect of global warming is caused by humans burning fossil fuels. I think this because humans burn fossil fuels and do these actions 24/7.
 * 1) Human activities like burning fossil fuels
 * 2) Greenhouse Gases
 * 3) Carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxides heat trapping abilities.

Is Global Warming Real-Reflection

I personally think global warming is real. The article caught my attention. I was interested on how they told about how the scientists made their charts and studied there notes about the temperature patterns over the past years. This article had lots of good information and they did a good job of explaining their theory. I would llike to read a article by someone who doesnt't believe in global warming. I think it would be interesting to see a battle between the two theories. If global warmming continues then there would be some cons. For example, some animal species would face extinction because they might not be able to adapt to the warmer climate.

3 Initiatives

These are three initiatives for reducing global warming that I believe in:
 * 1) Reducing the use of greenhouse gases
 * 2) Recycling
 * 3) Planting trees

Overall Reflection
====This project has been a great experience for me. It has helped me earn myself some new skills. I think that i learned a lot through searching for facts and researching my topic. This project also helped me with my commmunication skils. I had to compromise with my partner. I really enjoyed this project! I hope you have learned 1 or 2 things from my wiki. I know I have! Thank you for reading my wiki!====

Sincerely, Grace
