Global warming is already under way. The evidence is vast and the urgency of taking action becomes clearer with every new scientific study. Some of the most obvious signs are visible in the Arctic, where rising temperatures and melting ice are dramatically changing the region’s unique landscapes and wildlife—as well as people’s lives and livelihoods. Across the globe, other early warning signs include melting glaciers, shifting ranges of plants and animals, and the earlier onset of spring.

1. What is global warming?

Referees to average the Earth's temperature and became more hot. A warmer Earth may lead to changes in rainfall patterns, a rise in sea level, and a wide range of impacts on plants, wildlife, and humans. The global warming is caused by the pollution of the humans.

2. What is the process involved in the greenhouse effect?

3. What signs warn us about global warming?

the oceans level and the ice of the Arctic are warning up.

4. Can you quote another term for global warming?

Greenhouse effect (nadvertent climate modification.)

5. Watch the video and explain this idea: Global warming: panic or reality? THE BIG QUESTION: What can we do to stop global warming?

The humans generate a lot of pollution every day. We must stop that to make a change in that fact and save our planet, because we're damaging our lives. We contaminate the air and also generate the greenhouse effect.
This is the reason of the fast average the Earth's temperature. We also should find a solution for remove that and create a better world. For example clean energies like the wind, the solar power and the water, use more the public transport...

ALL TOGETHER, WE CAN MAKE A CHANGE!!!

I remember last Christmas with my family wleven month ago. It was amazing and memorable day.






First, all of my family came to our house. At 3 o'clock we had a special lunch, after that at fice o'cloc we opened the Santa Clause presents and we made the "Caga Tio", a Catalan's tradition.



There were a lot of presents and everybody was very happy. Finally, we read the Christmas poems, we saw a film, we had dinner and all family went to their houses about eleven o'clock.






There were about fifteen people in the Christmas lunch. I remember my little cousin Ramon he was very scaried of the Christmas tree. It was really fun day and I felt very well because there was all my family together in my house.



My ideal home!

My home
Here we are in my ideal home. It’s a chalet opposite of the beach in Santa Barbara, California. It’s very big, but sometimes is difficult to clean. It’s got 7 bedrooms , 4 bathrooms , a big kitchen , a playroom , a beautiful hall , an incredible dining room and a living room . The dining room has got a big old lamp and a beautiful piano and I play it every day.

On an ideal morning in my ideal home we’re all here. My mum and dad are eating the breakfast outside in the wonderful garden. My brother is surfing on the sea. I’m in the living room watching a film with my friends.

I like the garden because it has a big pole and a lot of beautiful plants. My favourite room is my bedroom because it has a large wardrobe, a desk with my computer and a lot of photos, books and posters on the wall I can relax and chatting with my friends in it.
