    I'm learning more about Copenhagen conferences right now, and in particular what I'm wondering about is :''Why is the Copenhagen conferences so important? i was researching this question online,and this blog post caught my attention because the title of the blog is Obama's remake at the unit nation climate change conference,and i saw why this conference is important, because the people that join the conference is all the leadership of their country around the word. "Climate change will pose unacceptable risks to our security, our economies, and our planet. Climate change poses a grave and growing danger to our people" The quote i chose here is basically saying that the climate change is danger to the people. The climate change also will damage our security,our economies,and our planet. I think this is best because the conference it makes me wonder that the leadership of the world know the problem of this,so they just have a conference about the climate change,so they try to solve the climate problem,because it can be damage the world, so they try to decrease the pollution of the world ,some of their country cut the greenhouse gas emission, some of them cut the emission intensity. they do so hard to cut this,so i think it should have more conference like this, then they can make the world more better.

      This makes me wonder about the contry. Is that all of the country in european union will follow what they accept to do?

Obama, Copenhagen, and the Global Warming Skeptics | The LA Progressive - 0 views

    I'm learning more about Global Warming right now, and in particular what I'm wondering is will we have to live underwater in the future? I was researching this question online, and this blog post caught my attention because many things are changing around the world. Disasters like hurricanes grow stronger and other things like drought become longer and deadlier. Few challenges facing America-and the world-are more urgent than combating climate change. The science is beyond dispute and the facts are clear. Sea levels are rising. Coastlines are shrinking. We've seen record drought, spreading famine, and storms that are growing stronger with each passing hurricane season. The quote here is basically saying that our continents are sinking into the sea or is getting swallowed by the sea. Things like hurricanes grow stronger from this and other disasters also grow deadlier. I think this is scary because one year your house might be right next to the coast line and the next year, right when you step out of your backyard, your stepping on ocean water. This makes me think will we have to live underwater in the future and adopt to underwater conditions.
