Global warming. Panic or reality?


1. What is global warming?
Global warming is the current rise in the average temperature of Earth's oceans and atmosphere.
2. What is the process involved in the greenhouse effect?
The greenhouse effect is a process by which thermal radiation from a planetary surface is absorbed by atmospheric greenhouse gases, and is re-radiated in all directions. Since part of this re-radiation is back towards the surface, energy is transferred to the surface and the lower atmosphere. As a result, the temperature there is higher than it would be if direct heating by solar radiation were the only warming mechanism.
3. What signs warn us about global warming?
Increasing the temperature to the greenhouse effect and the disappearance of ice at the poles by increasing heat
4. Can you quote another term for global warming?
climate was warming; inadvertent climate modification, climate change
5. Watch the video and explain this idea: Global warming: panic or reality?
Global warming is real. We every day generate a lot of pollution and we contaminate the atmosphere a lot. The problem is caused by the oil, the fuel and gas because they generate a lot of pollution. They contaminate the air and also generate the greenhouse effect.
The temperature is increasing and a lot of plants and animals are dying for US.
But we can stop this problem, we can use renewable and clean energies like the wind, the solar power and the water.


THE BIG QUESTION: What can we do to stop global warming? Suggest five ideas.

-We can recycle
-We can use the public transport
-We can use the shower instead of bath
-
We can use renewable energy
-We can
use energy saving light bulbs

How to write an email to an internet forum

Hi

My name's Francesc Rigau and I live in Banyoles in Catalonia. I like the area where I live, so I want to improve it.

In my opinion there aren't many youth clubs and open spaces in the area. Definetly there is a lot of traffic and polution. As a result, a lot of people don't go out because there isn't any site to visit or to go.

I think the council should do something about this. I was thinking this and I find a solution. We should find a land which local people can use for a park, or a garden. We need this quickly, we need an open spaces.

My oral presentation

Hi, my name is Francesc and I'm 13 years old.
Today I'm talking about my summer holidays.
First I'm going to talk about Cantoni. Then I'm going to talk about my holidays with my family in Kenya. Finally I'm going to talk the prepare for school.

The first thing to did in this summer was go to Cantoni to pass 7 days with my friends and doing funny activities. Then in August I went with my family to Kenya. In Kenya I did a lot of safaris and I saw a lot of animals like: zebras, elephants, lions and others. Finally I prepared all things for the school. I prepared my books, my pencil case, my homework...
And during this time I did a lot of homework and I read a lot of books.

I think this summer was funny, but it was hot and so short.
