The Polar Climate Zone

By: Crystin Maple Junior High-Science Polar Climates

Objective:

You will be able to click on the pins on the interactive image to explore and learn more about polar climate zones. Go through each 7 pins and learn a little more about the polar climate zone and then create a google document of a brief explanation on what you learned from the interactive image. On the interactive image, there is an invissable interactive button. You must try to find this invisible button that is included in this assignment. Once its found, a picture will appear over the area you are searching, IF that is wear the invisable button is located.

Here is a map showing where the Polar Climates are located. The dark blue on the map is the Polar Climate Zone. Take a close look at them and where they are located we will discuss about them in class.

CLIMATE CHANGE: Climate change is already altering habitats all around the world. The polar regions have warmed by nearly 10 degrees Fahrenheit since 1900, and temperatures continue to increase two to three times faster than the average for the rest of the world. OVERFISHING: Around the world, humans are taking fish out of the water faster than fish can reproduce. POLLUTION: Pollutants from human activities tend to make their way to polar regions, transported via ocean currents, migratory birds, and other means. Marine debris, which can entangle wildlife, may stick around for long periods as the region’s extended, dark, and cold winters inhibit the breakdown of chemicals. OIL AND GAS DEVELOPMENT: The Arctic holds some of the world’s largest untapped oil and gas reserves, but getting to those precious resources, whether on land or offshore, can have devastating environmental impacts.
