Frank Keim's classes. He has wanted to share these works for others
to use as an example of Culturally-based curriculum and documentation. These
documents have been OCR-scanned. These are available
for educational use only.
Our Planet is Heating
Up
Over the past century, humans have raised our
planet's temperature. They did this by industrial activity and by
using internal combustion engines which generate gases that trap the
sun's rays in the atmosphere. This then causes what's called the
greenhouse effect. The greenhouse gases are methane, nitrous oxide,
and especially carbon dioxide. The more C02 that is released in to
the atmosphere, the hotter it gets. Before the Industrial Revolution,
the atmosphere contained about 280 parts per million of C02. Today
the figure is 360 p.p.m. Top climatologists, say by the end of next
century the C02 level will be somewhere between 480 to 800
p.p.m.
1995 was the warmest year since they started to
keep global records in 1856. 1991-1995 was the warmest five year
period in recorded history. The temperature is rising because of
human activity and it has risen one degree this century. The
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change predicts the temperature
will rise another 2-6 degrees Fahrenheit over the next century. In
many areas of the West, Midwest, Northeast and Northern U.S. the
temperatures are already three degrees warmer. In the future we may
see deadly heat waves such as the heat wave in Chicago that occurred
in 1995 and killed so many people the morgue couldn't handle all the
bodies.
