Climate Change - Plan

CLIMATE CHANGE

Introduction

In this project I’ll tell you how climate change influences the life on our planet. I’ll also give you some information about the latest technological achievements to change the weather in one particular place.

1. The Greenhouse Effect

The climate on the Earth is quite warm and comfortable for people to live. It’s because of the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse gasses like carbon dioxide surround our planet like thick blanket. The heat from the sun reaches our planet, then radiates from the land and the sea. Partly this heat goes up into the atmosphere and partly it is trapped by the greenhouse gasses. Scientists say that in the next 100 years, the average temperature will rise by about 3 degrees Celsius. It doesn’t sound like a lot, BUT it means big trouble! Ice is already melting, sea levels are rising and the climate is changing.

3. Wildlife in great danger.

(your own example)

4. Wild, wild weather. (SB p.51)

5. Changing the weather. (WB p.27)

Unfortunately, people can’t change the climate on the Earth, but sometimes we can change the weather.

Extreme Sports

Introduction

A variety of extreme sports: Name the extreme sports you know, say some words about them (for example, “Why do people do them? - p.14 ex.2-3”, “What adjectives can characterize the sports and personal qualities of the sportsmen?”).

Examples of extreme sports:

• Freediving – p.15

  - снаряжение,
  - необходимые физические способности,
  - сложности,
  - что происходит в организме,
  - рекорды,
  - пример про человека,
