What is Global Warming?

Emily, Lindsay, Marlene and Alison

Global warming is the increase of the earth’s average surface temperature. Scientists agree the main cause of global warming is the human expansion of the "greenhouse effect”. People say when a baby is born today, when they are 80 years old the world will be 6 and a half degrees warmer than it is now. Global warming is a problem of too much carbon dioxide. The greenhouse effect is the trapping of the sun's warmth in a planet's lower atmosphere. In the past 50 years the average temperature in the USA has gone up by 2 degrees. The largest cause of global warming is the carbon dioxide released when fossil fuels such as oil and coal are burned for their energy. The atmosphere is the gases that surround the earth. Some of the other reasons why global warming is caused is, carbon dioxide and other air pollution [greenhouse gases] is collecting in the atmosphere like a thickening blanket, trapping the sun's heat and causing the earth to warm up.

Here are 10 ways to stop global warming:

Replacing one regular light bulb with a compact fluorescent light bulb
Walk, bike, and carpool to get to places

Check your tires, keeping your tires properly inflated
Use less hot water
Avoid products with a lot of packaging

Will robots be conscious one day?

Peyton, Matthew, Harper, Jumah

Robots don’t have feelings like we do. Robots may or may               not be conscious one day but scientist don’t know. Computers can’t handle any process and a robot is like a computer so they cannot be conscious. They are making robots that have feelings so they can be conscious. Sometimes when robots are shut down they can dream (SOMETIMES). Some scientists think that robots will never have feelings like we do, but it is not 100% correct that they will not have feelings.

Generally, we say that robots don’t have feeling and so they can’t behave like us humans. Some Scientists say that robots that have been made are harmless. That may not be true. Some people say on the internet that there will be a robot invasion but it is known to be not true.

Trees can think by using internal communications. They can also memorize different types of light. The leaves communicate through the tree. Plants can sense, warn and remember.
