Homework 3 : Climate change project
Help we are going under!!
Your task is to find and research an island that is sinking due to climate change, most are in the Pacific like the Maldives, Kiribati, Tuvalu etc.
You need to make sure you find out what the threats to your chosen island are in three different categorizes:-
Social threats/Economic threats / Environmental threats.
So it may be a threat to the tourist industry, Coral reefs or fisheries, it may be to the actual homes. It is up to you to find out.
Once you have your information you also need to offer a solution as to how to solve the problem, sea walls, buying land to house your citizens, using renewable fuels instead of fossil fuels . stop cutting down trees that absorb Carbon Dioxide. What will the world do with Climate Change refugees?
All this information needs to be displayed on an A3 cut out of your island, coloured in with the name of your chosen island clearly displayed. You should include images of the island and the threat it faces, include a table of threats and an innovative way to show your solutions. Remember to include the countries flag.
Use your imagination to display all the information as interestingly as possible, use colour and keep your writing neat ( or type the information).
