The effects of climate change

Learn the effects of climate change using this template.

If you are aware of them, you will be able to do something to avoid them. Think about rising temperatures, eco-system problems, overpopulation, and the effects of climate change on resources.

Climate change can cause extreme weather events, plant and animal extinction and has many other effects that can affect us directly and indirectly.

Rising temperatures can cause sea level rise, ice-caps melting, oceans warming, and water evaporating. They also have several effects. You will have to think about some examples.

Changes in the climate system affect plants, animals, and biodiversity.

Overpopulation leads to overfarming, food/water scarcity, and overfishing.

Think about ways to save resources like new infrastructure investments for energy and find reusable energy sources.

Climate Change

Global warming is the ongoing rise of the average temperature of the Earth's climate system which has various negative effects.

Overpopulation

Overpopulation creates an increased demand for energy as well as having negative effects on our environment and ecosystems.

Overfishing

Overfishing is the removal of a species of fish from a body of water at a rate that the species cannot replenish, resulting in those species becoming underpopulated in that area.

This will lead to a Marine Ecosystem imbalance with time.

Food/water scarcity

Water is essential for agricultural production and food security. It is the lifeblood of ecosystems, including forests, lakes, and wetlands.

Overpopulation affects our water and this has negative outcomes.

Overfarming

Over-cultivation is the practice of excessive farming on a piece of land to the point of degradation of the soil as well as the land itself.

Resources

Climate change is likely to both increase electricity demand for cooling in the summer and decrease electricity, natural gas, heating oil, and wood demand for heating in the winter.

Reusable energy

Finding reusable energy sources can be our first step towards conserving our environment.

Clean energy

How will climate change affect the production of clean energy?

e.g.: solar, wind, water

New energy

New infrastructure investments may be necessary to meet increased energy demand.

e.g.: nuclear power plants

Example

Eco-system

Healthy ecosystems and rich biodiversity are fundamental to life on our planet.

Even small changes in average temperatures can have a significant effect upon ecosystems.

Biodiversity

The inter-connected nature of ecosystems means that the loss of species can have knock-on effects upon a range of ecosystem functions.

e.g. bees go extinct

Plants

Climate change will affect mountain and lowland ecosystems, the diversity of wildlife, and the distribution of freshwater.

e.g.: forest fires

Animals

Climate change is affecting the habitats of several species, which must either adapt or migrate to areas with more favorable conditions.

e.g.: natural habitat disappearing

Rising temperature

Climate change is supported by scientific evidence.

Water evaporating Warming oceans

Write down the consequences caused by this issue and how it will affect our lives and the environment in the future.

e.g.: flooding, rainfall increase

Melting ice-caps

Write down the consequences caused by the melting of the ice-caps and how it will affect our lives and the environment in the future.

e.g.: decreasing of polar bear habitat

Sea level rising

Write down the consequences caused by this issue and how it will affect our lives and the environment in the future.

e.g.: decreasing of land surface

Miért érdemes Mindomo mind map sablont használni?

A gondolattérképek segítenek az ötletelésben, a fogalmak közötti kapcsolatok kialakításában, a rendszerezésben és az ötletek generálásában.

A gondolattérkép-sablonok azonban könnyebb utat kínálnak a kezdéshez, mivel ezek olyan keretek, amelyek egy adott témával kapcsolatos információkat tartalmaznak, irányadó utasításokkal. Lényegében a mindmap-sablonok biztosítják azt a struktúrát, amely egy adott téma összes elemét egyesíti, és kiindulópontként szolgál az Ön személyes mindmapjához. Forrást jelentenek arra, hogy praktikus megoldást nyújtsanak egy adott témával kapcsolatos elmetérkép létrehozásához, akár üzleti, akár oktatási céllal.

A Mindomo intelligens gondolattérkép-sablonokat kínál, amelyek lehetővé teszik, hogy könnyedén működjön és gondolkodjon.

Egy sablon különböző funkciókkal rendelkezik:

Leíró témák

Témák háttérszöveggel

Alapértelmezett ág

A sablonadatok eltávolítása

Választhat a Mindomo üzleti vagy oktatási fiókjaiból, vagy létrehozhatja saját gondolattérkép sablonjait a semmiből. Bármilyen elmetérkép átalakítható elmetérkép-sablon térképpé, ha az egyik témakörhöz további irányadó jegyzeteket ad hozzá.
