Blog Review 1

Berb's Blabber

I thought this blog showed excellent writing. The topics of glaciers, global warming and climate change were explained. The photographs showed much thought in their selection. I liked the Statue of Liberty photo showing what it would look like if all of the ice sheets melted. The graph was an excellent choice to show how CO2 is increasing. Using the Milankovich cycles to help added scientific evidence to why we have ice ages. Explaining how more ice cover leads to greater albedo brought out the positive feedback mechanism. The links highlighted are wonderful. I have read the book by Clive Cussler and agree it would be a good B movie. Even though the book is fiction is used present scientific ideas to create a exciting story. The blog was colorful, informative and interesting to read. I also agree there is not much we can do to change clmate. It is and will be a tragedy if we lose native cultures due to climate change. We will all feel the effects of climate change. The blog raises and excellent question is global warming natural or are humans causing our climate change?
