Climate Change

I was given an assignment in my sociology class to read a book on a social problem. The book I selected was a book on climate change and the social problem that it creates. The book is based on facts and is opinionated however the author presents very mind boggling ideas that need to be heard. The climate change is not a good thing once the ice melts in the Antarctic and when the ice sheets of Greenland are gone the sea level will rise 240 feet. The author says this will be the end of the world. Millions of people who live near water will die all across the world. The poor countries will be hurt the most by the risen water levels, the people living in these countries will need to leave and immigrate into countries that are not as affected. The amount of immigrants coming in will create a economic downfall, and wars will be fought over high land as the climate continues to rise. Causing the end of the world.

  1. That's really interesting Cam. I've never read a book about climate change, in the past, but I know that it would be a good book. Hopefully you do really well on your presentation today. Try not to stutter like me and look stupid ;).
