New Climate Technologies - Lici Mixson

 With the world now starting to see the effects of climate change with some cities now having to deal with things such as rising sea levels, shifts in weather patterns that effect farming and food sources, the increase in droughts and wildfires, and changing in weather patterns that cause states like Colorado to experience an 80 degree day in one county and in a county directly adjacent they would receive 14 inches of snow. Many scientists have developed new technologies to monitor which pars of the world are experiencing climate change already, and use this new technology to predict when, how and, what parts of the world are most likely to be effected next. There are many technologies to monitor the change in the ocean temperatures, monitor the change in weather patterns and to measure the atmosphere, changes in land, and compare that to how the climate has been in the past. I think that these new technologies being able to compare new climate data to old climate data can help us accurately predict and plan for how we want to approach climate problems in the future.

    I just feel like everyone should just think about how/what we are doing to the earth and try to make a change instead of ignoring science and facts. It gets irritating seeing how no one gives any attentions and in some films it shows them making fun of scientists instead of believing them and supporting them.
