Problem & solution (TASK7)

One of the biggest problems facing the world today is global warming. Many experts believe that our production of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases is heating the atmosphere, and thiscould be very dangerous for human life. This essay will examine the problem of global warming and suggest some solutions for it.The film An Inconvenient Truth, directed by Davis Guggenheim, 2006, presented by Al Gore,the weather was changing by year and years . The sea level raisingmaslo the another problem in a DvD explaine how the life become more hard then will be more hurricanes and heat waves in future.


Many problems could result from global warming. One of the biggest is rising sea level. This could result in the flooding of low lying coastal areas and cities, such as Egypt, the Netherlands, and Bangladesh. Another problem is changes in weather patterns. Many areas of the world are experiencing increased hurricanes, floods, and other natural disasters. A final issue associated with this phenomenon is the negative effect on animals. Fish populations could be affected, while some insects which spread disease might become more common ;also dirty coal plants that produce large amounts of carbon dioxide which cause global warming (Knute Nadelhoffer).


Humans can do a lot to reduce Global warming is effects and save the planet. One way is to reduce using oil which produce a lot of carbon dioxide one of the green house gases and the main reason of global warming and depend more on the renewable energy like solar and wind energy. Another solution is to use less energy or electricity. By using less electricity, less oil and recources are going to used and less carbon dioxide is produced but accept the fact that emission of carbon and GHGs cannot be stopped completelly(Kyoto).


In conclusion, making small changes now in the way we live means avoiding huge changes in the future. Scientists, governments and individuals must work together to overcome this serious threat.

Task 6 - Cool City

In this task we watched a cool city video at the beinning of the class : the video talked about the problems since the industrial revolution started . The problems the video mentioned are the population growth then the traffic congestion and the carbon dioxide emissions.



In Japan over the past 30 years the GDP has increased by 100 % and at the same time the energy efficiency was increased and the oil consumption has decreased 8% .



The green city is a cool city with zero carbon dioxide emissions without any environment problems . The transportation has many types like hybrid cars or trains or watertaxis . The zones in the city are Business, Commercial, Cultural and Residential.



There are many ways to solve the environment problems and reduce the heat like tree-planting; waterways; rooftop membranes .There are two types of buildings which would reduce CO2; one is called eco-towers which are going to reduce 50% and the second one is eco-residences and it will reduce about 30%.

In my opinion we should care about the environment because the life will become harder in the future and we can solve the problems to have a nice life on earth so no need for a new earth to live . All people must work with us to overcome these problems .

Carbon Footprint - TASK 5

The carbon footprint is the amount of emissions which affect the earth which l’m responsible for. I had got mine in the http://footprint.wwf.org.uk/ and I felt good and happy that I got the normal number; it was 2.42. The average figure for CRB was 3.778.

The three main factors are:
a) Travel: 29%
b) Stuff: 32%
c) Food 24%

My personal footprint is 2.42

What can I do to reduce my carbon footprint?

I can travel so I love to travel butI see the travel is the biggest thing I should change to reduce to my carbon footprint . I have a nice time in a weekend with my family and friends . The stuff is important and I use more stuff in my day like a personal little things . The food in past I ate anythings but now because I do a bodybuilding and eat healthy food to be healthy man I love to eat meat to much because it has more protein.

How Europe can save the world - (Summary 3)

Summary (PART1)

The European Union has struck a deal which is arguably the most important since its foundation 50 years. German Chancellor Angela Merkel, emerging as a European politician in the great tradition of Adenauer, Brandt, Delors, Mitterand and Kohl, has used the current German presidency of the EU to mastermind an epic commitment on tackling climate change and energy security.

The EU wants to do it best to radically reduced starting from the beginning of next year carbn emisswins good reasons. Renewable energy is expensive and poses environmental dilemmast then wind farms disturb natural habitats; tidal barriers form other barriers to natural flows of marine life. Some adroit political leadership and a growing intellectual and cultural conviction that there has to be change and the 'after you' blockage has been decisively broken. plan to deliver collective European benefits that no one country could achieve alone. Today, carbon remains centre stage, in a diametrically different way . In December, the UN will convene the key meeting in Indonesia to begin the discussions about what treaty will succeed Kyoto. It needs to be tougher on targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and it needs to include the Indians, Chinese and Americans.

Main idea (PART2)
The main idea about this summary is how the world can decreas the Co2 in the world; they made a meeting to tell another countries why its important . The world needs more safety and healthy service, also how a big countries do their best to show us how to co-operate in this problem.

Comment ( PART3)
In my opinion the global warming is very important because the life is depends on it . My opinion is the countries should put many points about this problem and care about it by putting attention to this matter . I remeber the movie which i see in a class about the global warming and how the life is changing .

TASK 4 - Reviews of 'An Inconvenient Truth'

Peter Travers thinks that the movie is one of Al Gore lectures about global warming. It included a multimedia slide show and shots, giving speeches and describes his thoughts, about environmental issues that he is worried about. It is frightening and may impact your dreams badly. On the other hand, Gore keeps us fascinated by being aware and deeply believable on the most serous and dangerous issue.

Paul Arendt had another view of the movie; he dislikes Al Gore and his movie because it is as a documentary or drama. Furthermore, he does not think that it sounds too thrilling but it is at the same time a good presentation to a live audience. He thinks that Gore passed over the world with his half an hour presentation which contains terms that describe how we affected the environmental harmfully. He also has proofs of his thoughts as diagrams, and images to show seriousness of the issue. Finally, he blames the director of his choice of annoying shots of Gore.
I liked the Inconveiment Truth movie because it discuses important issue that affects our life, others, and coming generation. It is a film, which will motivate people to reduce and minimize their destruction of the planet.


As a conclusion, I agree with Al Gore, because he has a big view in global warming, so he wants people to take care of the planet. No matter what others say about him. We have to preserve the earth to live in it for a better life.

The global warming

summary
There are very modern buildings and designs in the world like the Turning Torso in a Sweden's new western Harbour development. The staff in this modern building add more nice life style in a building . In the town of Malmo the western Harbour lifestyle in the designer made a more comfortable and more modern .There are some problems in this town like many types of bat in these building .These bats came from another place and travel to another place. The designer thinks about making a place more safer and healthier by build the shelves suitable. the scientist show as the good indicators of flying insects . The developers think about building the houses with more different spaces and places to make a more wonderful life style .The life give us more things we must give and help people to continue the life with young people or older contemporaries. The designers are think to make more sizes for animals and birds .They asked were to install rooftop wind turbines on the houses and increase the number of habitats across a wider area to make also the comfortable life for animals .

Main idea
A building are safer and more comfortable by the new model. The designers think about building the houses to become safer for resident children and animals and take more sizes for animals and birds .

Comment
I see we should build houses in the right way and take steps to become safer for who will live there and we don’t forget the animals. The bat is so dangerous but sometimes we find the good things by this type of bats. I think the great building come from a designer thinking about more things when then make a layout.

Blog project- Task 1

I’m Abdullah Hamad from Abu Dhabi I’m 19, I’m single I came from Ras Alkhimah 10 years ago & live now in Alsalaam Street . I finished my school in 2007 and now I am studying in Abu Dhabi Men’s College in the second year in ADMC, business major . My hoppies are a swimming, playing foot ball and love to go to the gym . visited many countries like USA,UK, and many countries so I love to travel & try new things. In my free time I join my friends and we have a nice time but the most things if you want to find me go to the gym which I am there.

The global warming is a very important and dangerous problem in the world. My teacher Hedley shows the importance of critical thinking and thinking about global warming. The world now want to be healthy and more safety for human’s better life. When I went home I did some research about the global warming so that I have more information about it and I found that Global warming refers to an increase in the Earth's temperature, which can causes changes in the climate. I found also an useful website which briefly describes the global warming, how it changes and some latest news and useful videos about it this website is “www.globalwarming.org”
