Effects of Climate Change

Today we'll pick up the articles we didn't have time to get to on Tuesday.
You'll work individually to read your assigned article and answer the questions listed here: Carbon's Casualties.
Then you'll work with your group to create a poster that effectively and invitingly engages your audience with the idea that the topic you read about is an important one to know and understand. When finished, you'll present your topic and posters to the class.
Your poster should:
  • Have a catchy slogan/title (Something more creative than "Stop Climate Change" or "Save the Whales")
  • Include the basics-- who, what, where, when
  • Include the significance-- why and how
    • Use the questions that you answered to help you decide what information to include
      • How has global climate change affected the local climate and geography of the region discussed in your article?
      • How have these changes affected the people living there?
      • How have the people tried to adapt to climate change’s effects?
      • Why is this story important for the world to know?
  • Be visually exciting and have artistic merit. 
  • Include an image (or images) either drawn or printed
    • Have brief captions for images 
  • Be sure to organize the information clearly
  • Avoid long sentences
