Blog Post #2 – How might climate change affect life in my community in the next 50 years?

Research Round 1: How has climate change evolved in the last 50 years?

For my inquiry project, the first step I will have for my research is finding out how climate change has evolved in the last 50 years. My main goal for this round will be to get a better idea of the rate and severity and find patterns to try and predict what will happen in the future. I will research not only the statistics for the world, but also in my area to have more information for my community as well.

Research Round 2: What are the biggest factors and causes of climate change?

My second round will be more focused on the biggest factors and causes of climate change and how they affected the speed of its growth. I will try to find ways to reduce these key factors and develop a better understanding of why these factors have the impact they do on climate change. I hope to share my findings with close friends and family members to help us do our part in preserving our planet.

Research Round 3: What are the biggest impacts of climate change?

The last round of research I will conduct will be centred around the biggest impacts of climate change. What has it done to our planet and communities? How has it affected marine life and animals on land? These are the types of things I would like to know more about. This round will give me more insight on the true damage climate change has caused, and just how worried we need to be about this growing issue.

This question has implications on myself and my community because it will help people understand the true gravity of the situation and educate people on ways we can change our future for the better. I’m excited to begin my research and I hope you will enjoy learning about my findings.
