The little ice age was a small period in time the the climate went down

Here is an article about how global warming and climate change have melted ice in the Arctic Ocean, opening up some new shipping routes.

It describes with good details how influential global warming can be. Global warming can be a very essential thing when many scientists have been surprised by all these new shipping routes in the Arctic Ocean.

I thought this was interesting, it wasn't as negative! It showed how when the ice melts there will be more ship routes, which I thought was odd, because they talked about that, not really about the other affect melted ice will have for wildlife and the rest of the world!

This website is one of the best on this page seen because it is about one specific INTERESTING topic, not all about global warming. CUTE POLAR BEARS! I love how itjust gets right to the point as wherwe other websites take you to home pages when you have to dig to get to the gold.

This site relates geology and climate change, and how climate change is shown within geological records. It also has a part on the greenhouse effect and other changes in the atmosphere.

Evidence for climate change is preserved in a many of earths of geological settings, including water and lake sediments and particles, ice sheets from ice ages and modern times, and fossil tree rings because thicker rings mean more water that years. Rock also provides intricate and detailed information about the climate. If a certain rock like limestone is found where it is a dessert than that means that there was once an ocean there which would effect the climate. There is geological evidence that when more co2 is released into the atmosphere it tends to make the earth heat and with that water levels rise. This is evident through the said process of rock types that was described. Co2 that is absorbed into tree rings also offers evidence of this. Overall, geology offers many different scientific clues about how to tell the climate of ancient times an places. Geology can be helpful to climatologists who want to compare data and prove their point of view.

This website is very thorough in examining the causes and effects of climate change. The website stated that temperatures have risen up to 2 degrees across the entire planet, causing natural disasters, poor air quality, and destruction of wildlife and habitat. Although climate change is natural and there has been 7 glacial retreats in the last 650,000 years, the recent temperatures are off the charts and carbon dioxide levels are higher than they have ever been, showing it is linked to human oil consumption. Global temperatures, sea level rise, shrinking ice sheets, warming ocean waters, glacial retreats, and extreme events are all signs of the global warming that is plaguing the planet. This website confirmed my original point-of-view on the global warming issue because it showed how this is uncommon for previous climate changes and how the warming can create natural disasters.

Good official government site

This is a very helpful website with the information about the climate and carbon levels in the top bar of the website.

This website has info on why our climate is changing and how to prevent major climate change. You can learn about the climate issues and the science of it all. It gives a few ideas that you can use to reduce the climate change and the issues of global warming. This website is from the United States Enviornmental Protection Agency and is a reliable source that gives clear and accurate information. This site has any information on climate change and enviornmental protection that any one will need or want to know!

This websites provides excellent proof of the fact that global warming is real. In the last 650,000 years CO2 levels did not go over 300 ppm. However in recent times the ppm has sky rocketed to 390 ppm. I find it is also frightening that ten of the hottest years occurred in the last 12 years. Coldest records are not being reported as often as they used to be. The top 700 meters of the ocen has rose a frightening .3 degrees Fahrenheit seance 1969. The acidity of the ocean has also risen by 30%. This website backs up my ideas on climate change. I believe and so does NASA that global warming is happening now.

This website is very detailed, it has a graph and excellent proof of global warming.

This link show you that global warming does make an effect on the earth. It tells you lots of good information. I was surprised that the earth has had its hottest temperatures in the last 12 years! There has been no coldest records in a long time.
