Water & Climate Kristen S., Jared Munn,Adam Long =Ice Ages= = An ice age starts by snow coming in the winner and the summers are not hot to take the snow away so next winter comes around it snows again and it just keeps building up. Snow can build up to 1km high. They said thousands of years ago in Green Land. Ice age could last 100 years before the ice age to end. The snow will malted and the water will wash out the land and it would take all the sand down the hills. The most recent ice age was about 120 000 years ago and end it about 11 000 years ago. =

= = Climate changes The climate changes so quickly and we are nothing but the cause. Over the years the climate has changed in many dramatic ways. The biggest influence that humans take part in the change is carbon dioxide. We rely on fossil fuels, whether it’s driving a car, heating a home, or to producing the products that hurt the environment the most. Most jobs now-a-days are also a big part in the reason the climate is changes, which in fact, all relates back to humans and their everyday life. Climate change is a long-term shift in in the climate of a specific location. media type="custom" key="19037636"

< Causes of climate change. = The way that the earth orbits can cause of climate change and the way the sun is on it axis. Most of the causes of climate change are causes by human’s activity. Scientists say that we need to do something about it. They say that more people shouldn’t use wood heat because it pollutes the air to much. = media type="custom" key="18960126" = =
 * // Cold and warm currants: //**Warm ocean currents affect climate by transferring their heat to the atmosphere. Large bodies of water act as heat reservoirs in the winter. Warm currents come from the equator; cold currents come from the arctic and Antarctica regions. Cold currents also affect the climate by drawing heat from the air.

 * // Ice and the water cycle: //** during the last ice age, much of North America was as cold as Greenland is today. It was a little over 0 degrees Celsius! The water cycle goes sublimation, condensation, precipitation (rain), collection. Collection is the end point. After that, it goes back to Sublimation and starts over!
