plz help
Step 1: Create a Graph
Go to En-ROADS. Choose an input category (such as coal, bioenergy, population, deforestation, etc.) and adjust it.
Carefully observe how that one change affects both graphs and the temperature increase of the earth. Keep in mind that with “business as usual,” the earth’s temperature is predicted to go up by 4.1° Celsius (7.3° Fahrenheit). So if you increase energy efficiency, the earth’s temperature increase will go down. This does not mean that the temperature is decreasing—it is just increasing by less.
Take a screenshot that includes the category you changed and the temperature change graph and number. Paste the screenshot into a word processing document.
For example, this screenshot shows how the temperature increase went down when we increased energy efficiency:
The En-Roads climate interactive showing energy efficiency increased and temperature increase decreased.
Step 2: Summarize Your Conclusions
Write a few sentences about your observations after your screenshot.
For our example we might say that when energy efficiency is highly increased, it has a positive overall effect on the earth’s temperature. It could decrease it by 0.4° Fahrenheit. It also reduces how much coal, oil, and gas is used.
Step 3: Add Text to Prevention Section
Go to Adobe Express and log in to your account. If you are already logged in, click on the Get Adobe Express Free button in the middle of the page, and you’ll be taken to your homepage. Open your Global Warming poster that you started in the lessons by clicking on Your stuff in the left side menu.
Add your observations from Step 2 to the Prevention section that you set up earlier.
Our example could look something like this:
The prevention section of the poster with an image of a windfarm and the sentence about energy efficiency underneath.
Step 4: Add Text to Causes and Effects Sections
Finish the Causes and Effects sections in your poster. Look up information from reputable sources, and try to use a variety of sources such as online articles/websites, printed books, magazines, journals, etc. Include at least one picture per section.
To submit your poster, you’ll need to get the link. Share this poster following the instructions in the unit. Upload the link to this unit’s dropbox
