Global Warming and Climate Change in Canada

1. Global Warming is a huge problem in Canada since if the climate changes then either glaciers will crumble and place will get very try. Wild animals will not go explore that much they will stay around on land more and might harm the humans, since they have no where else to go.

2. Arctic Region: It is a big problem in the arctic region because polar bears will not go and explore that often if the ice and snow melts. If that happens then polar bears will harm humans more often than usual. When ice and glaciers melt they will have a big effect on damaging and destroying homes, buildings, and roads. If roads get damaged then trucks with food and other sorts of items will not be delivered to important areas. Lots of bears will die and starve since they do not have ice to hunt and walk on.

Interior Plains: It will get very hot in the summer if the climate gets hotter which means super hot houses which people would not want to live in and dead burnt grass all over the plains. All the lakes will get very warm.

Canadien Shield: It will get very hot since there is no oceans near by and the increase of flooding and storms will go on which will hurt many of people and wipe out houses. This all will turn into a disaster and all the water from the arctic will come down the the east side of Canada. Everyone will want to move and get out of the east side so they don't get caught up in this huge mess.

The Cordillera: In British Columbia it will be more warm since we have the Pacific Ocean right by BC.The survival rates of spawning salmon will get higher and more pests will come out.

St. Lawrence Lower Region: This Region will have less flooding but will mostly be the same as the Canadian Shield.

Appalachian Region: This region will have lots of flooding and maybe storms since it is on east coast but it will not be so hot since the Atlantic Ocean is right by it.

  1. Excellent discussion of the changes to each region. Think about how this would affect the settlement patterns within those regions though. Will it get denser? Will people move there at all?
