This picture explains over what states it was over and what seas and other waterways it was connected to

Rachel and I found this short video giving a little bit of information on the western interior seaway.

This website describes the western interior seaway and has good information in details!

Western Interior Seaway!!!

The whole middle of the country was gone

This show where the Western Interior Seaway was, and the creatures that inhabited it. It is full of useful information!

Rachel and I found this website that gives great information and a map of where the seaway is.

Q and A with climate change facts! Good to quiz yourself with:) my favorite is: In the past, has Earth been warmer than it is today? If so, does that mean we shouldn't worry about global warming?

NASA (National Aeronautics Space Administration) and NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) agree that climate change is happening and humans are contributing to it. Many people agree in the United States of America and abroad. MAny believe it is because of greenhouse gases from humans. Scientists are trying to answer some very important questions such as how quickly will the world warm, and what consequences will that have on certain parts of the world. The global temperature average has risen by 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit over the last 100 years. NOAA said that the decade between 2000-2010 was the warmest decade on record. 2005 was the warmest year on record. There have been more intense rainfall and severe heat waves. Sea levels are rising. The Earth does go through warming and cooling because of factors such as sun and volcanic activity. The warming and cooling is partly natural and partly because of humans. The sun's energy has fluctuated but is small in comparison compared to human's effect. The warming is consistent with what happens with heat trapping carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide can lead to climate changes that can hurt plants, animals, and people. For every 2 degrees Fahrenheit raise 5-15% reductions in crops. 3-10% increase in rain which would create flooding. 5-10% increase in stream flow. 200-400% increase in wildfires in the western United States. Scientists predict that the temperature will rise 2-12 degrees Fahrenheit by 2100. It is not too late too fix climate change!
