My Carbon Footprint



My Carbon FootPrint

One way to measure your impact on the climate is a Carbon Footprint. It is measured by ponds of carbon dioxide emissions. When I did the test which tell you how much is my carbon footprint, my result was is 2.97 planets. In the next paragraph I will explain the bad hobbits I do and cause to increase the amount of Carbon Dioxide in the earth.

There are many bad things that I do and cause to pollute the earth. First, I eat a meat or fish more than one a day which makes the animals endangered which damage the nature cycle. Second, I drove my medium petrol car about five to six hours a day which cause to produce more Carbon Dioxide that pollute the earth. Third, I do not switch my room light when I’m leaving the room which consumes the electricity. These things are summary of my daily hobbits.

I realize that these hobbits are bad hobbits because which contribute in damage the earth and I have to do the following to save the earth. I have to eat less meat and fish and eat instead of it some vegetables which make me healthier. Also, I have to use bus or train instead of using my car and it will help to reduce the amount of Carbon Dioxide in the earth. Moreover, I have to save the electricity and switch the light in the rooms where no body stay in. these are some solution that can help me to contribute in saving the earth.

To conclude, footprint is one way to measure the impact of climate. People should make some steps that help and contribute in reducing the impact in the earth. After realizing my bad hobbits I put some solution that helps me to reduce the impact in the earth. I hope that I can contribute in saving the earth from damage.

What Abu Dhabi should do to make people aware of Global Warming

1. We have to teach them about this problem and show to them how it will affect the earth and affect them.
2. They have to know that the global warming is a serious problem that is increasing day by day.
3. We have to give them some lectures shows them how they can contribute in reducing this problem. We have to make some advertisement and programs that aware

Why the movie was called "An Inconvenient Truth"

Why the movie was called "An Inconvenient Truth"
An Inconvenient Truth called by this name because it discusses about the problem that people contributes in raising it. the human kind forget this problem and they care about the development that raise the Global Warming problem.

My reaction about An Inconvenient Truth

My reaction about An Inconvenient Truth
For An Inconvenient Truth film, it is really a good film because it is helping the public to understand what happened around them. I think this film is useful as well as interesting. After watching this movie, I know about the global warming problem and how it will affect the world if we do not contribute to solve this problem.

An Inconvenient Truth


An Inconvenient Truth
An Inconvenient Truth is an American film which talks about the problem of Global warming. This film is presented by former United States Vice President Al Gore. The film discusses about Al Gore and his travel’s which educate the audience about the severity of the climate crisis. An Inconvenient Truth contains the events which changed Al Gore’s point of view about the world. These events are sister's death from lung cancer, and his young son's near-fatal car accident. In the global warming field, Al Gore try to explain about this problem and what is the future of the world if we do not do anything to solve this problem. For example, Gore discusses the possibility of the collapse of a major ice sheet in Greenland or in West Antarctica because of the Global warming problem and this could raise global sea levels and causes flooding in some area. In the end of the film, Gore discusses how we can contribute with him to reduce this problem. He gives us some solution that make the world better and make the human bean live in a good environment.

Cool Cities


Cool Cities

In this course, we are doing Global Warming subjects that are related to the environment and how we can reduce the problem of the world. First we saw An Inconvenient Truth it is really a good film which talks about the problem of Global Warming in the world and encourages the people in contributing to solve this problem. Second we learn about Masdar which is the city which will be free city from the gases which cause the pollution. It will lead the world in understanding how all future cities will be built. We read some article of the programs which UAE will make. The United Arab Emirates is promoting initiatives to minimize the negative environmental footprint of urban development and reduce consumption of energy. Also, one of the programs is Cool City. The Cool City is using available green technology in transport, urban development and architecture with a low carbon footprint. We will learn about Carbon footprint and how to measure it. We will learn also one plant for living .The government has to make a law that forces the people to follow some steps which reduce the problems in the world. Finally, we use our critical thinking to argument about the causes and the solutions of these environment problems. Critical thinking is an important topic which makes people think and ask themselves questions about what and why and how is every thing happen in the world.
