Questions

1a) The main thing I learned from writing this paper is that global warming affects hurricanes. Global warming increases the intensity of hurricanes, and causes devastation to both human and animal life.

1b) I want people to understand that global warming not only melts ice, but also has a much larger and more catastrophic effect on humans. To me when someone thinks of global warming they think of something that can’t directly hurt them, but I wanted to show them the more drastic effects of global warming, and why there should be a need for change.

2) I am still having troubles finding information relating to job loss. When a hurricane hits the amount of jobs losses is pretty vague because so many people leave the town. I am also having troubles elaborating and going into details about the statistics because they are hard to understand, and normally only need to be said once.

3) Everything in my senior project is relating to my essay and the essays of my partners. In our senior project we talk about how a rise in CO2 levels is raising the earths temperatures, how this is linked to storm intensities, and how this is melting the polar ice caps. We also talk about the bleaching of coral reefs, and how this negatively affects our marine organisms. Everything in our video is based off facts, and is very informative, and engaging.

4) I definitely need the most help with he essay, but it’s just a matter of me setting aside a few hours and doing a lot of research. I have the information, its just hard elaborating when a lot of the information is redundant.
