We started class by going over a section of the Europe map. Then, we moved on to Makayla's project
endangered species and polar bears
b/c of global warming the ice is breaking and is hurting the polar bears' habitat
polar bear is one of the top predators on the food chain.
they eat fish, seals, birds,
coral reefs and coral bleaching:
reefs cover .2%of the ocean
11% has been damaged
60% has been threatened by human activities
great barrier reef
largest
more than 2000km
33% is no take area- not taking any of the coral home
still at risk from increasing water temps as a result of global warming
bleaching of coral reefs is when the coral turns white
global warimg and coral bleaching has happened twice
5% is dead and 55% is bleached
carbon dioxide in the ocean
global warming is also likely to increase
After that, we finished up our blog discussion from last week
We left off with the nuclear power debate thingy
Morganne's was from 1970 to present (excluding obama's)
1974- thresh hold treaty. can't use over 1400 lbs of tnt
important to military, reduced size of test bombs
1987- nuclear forces program, banned all short and long aged missels
1991- limited amount of materials that would be allowed to on transportation
Kara's was about a court justice who is resigning this year. 35 years in his spot
appointed by gerald ford
Makayla's was about how obama couldn't get to poland to mark the 60th anniversary of the killing of millions of polish citizens.
Brittany's was about a skin-put thing that you wear on your arm and it sends a vibration and opens your emails on your hands
