CLIMATE CHANGE AND GLOBAL WARMING

by Elizaveta Zaretskaya | 19-03-2019 17:13





In March we continued our ecological marathon with students from Tamkang University. The 1st and 2nd lectures were devoted to CLIMATE CHANGE AND GLOBAL WARMING. The students, whose name were Semen Lin and Andrei Cheng, told us about Taiwan's environmental problems, global warming and climate change, and say the ocean is warming far faster than we thought. And sea levels could rise by 30 cm by the end of the century. 2019 (like 2018) is also set to be the hottest year since records began. 

Warmer seas fuel more powerful hurricanes, more intense rainfall, and destroy coral reefs. All these problems are very relevant for Taiwan because Taiwan is a small island in the Pacific ocean. Ocean heat is measured by thousands of robotic probes. Scientists say the warming oceans are due to rising CO2 levels. At the end of our event, we discussed this problem. All the guys think that all people should immediately solve these problems.

Thank you for your attention.
