This blog is a group project done by three block students at Salem State University in the Social Studies Course. Here is a little bit about each member of the group:
Hi! My name is Kristen Douglas and I am a senior at Salem State University. I am majoring in Elementary Education with a concentration in English. I chose global warming as a topic because it is something that is ongoing in our enviornment. It is brought up all over the place and I really do not know that much about it. I am looking forward to doing some research and sharing with you what we find.
My name is Leslie Veiga, and I am a senior currently finishing up my bachelors degree. In terms of the topic i choose I have always took interest in the environment which is why i felt global warming was a good fit. I feel that theirs a lot about the topic i do not know and a lot i want to learn. Therefore I am ready to see what this topic will teach me.
Hi I'm Sara Ward. I am from California but moved to Boston about 7 years ago. I am a college student and a nanny, so that keeps me really busy. Over the last few years I have heard a lot about Global warming and it's effects on our earth. I have heard that some people believe that it's happening and others don't really think it's that bad. I'm somewhere in the middle that I need to learn and explore what Global warming is and what's it's effects. I have seen some big changes in the weather this past year that makes me wonder even more about all this talk about global warming.
Some of the things we are going to look at is what are the causes of global warming, what effects is it having on the earth and different way that we as individuals can help prevent global warming from getting worse.
