Across
- 1. (NATURAL FACTORS) s__ d__ is released when volcanoes erupt, which reflects the sunlight, in turn cooling down the earth.
- 7. (ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS) As more droughts are occurring, they lead to __, where healthy land turns to desert.
- 8. (SOCIAL EFFECTS) Droughts also affect our water supply as temps keep rising and reservoirs, like in America lake __ ‘s water levels are dropping.
- 10. (ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS) Wildfires are increasing in frequency and intensity where more areas are becoming drier from __.
- 11. (NATURAL FACTORS) when volcanoes erupt, they release __ into the atmosphere.
- 13. (NATURAL FACTORS) The sun has dark spots called sunspots, which have s__ f__ randomly exploding, allowing heat to escape from the sun, increasing solar radiation towards Earth.
- 16. (SOCIAL EFFECTS) Practically every __ effect has a knock on effect socially, whether its water supply, food supply or direct danger to our homes, income and lives.
- 17. (NATURAL FACTORS) when volcanoes erupt, ash blocks the sun, causing a ‘__ __’ which can last around a year.
- 19. (HUMAN FACTORS) petrol and diesel (releasing __ e__) are used throughout various forms of transportation
- 20. (HUMAN FACTORS) Planes release gas and co2 through their jet __, used frequently for transporting holiday-goers and cargo (food exports etc)
- 21. (SOCIAL EFFECTS) W__ affect homes, businesses, lives and threaten water and food supply as they’re created through droughts.
Down
- 1. (ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS) s__ __ are rising. This is due to increased temperatures from gases trapping heat in the air and melting ice sheets.
- 2. (ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS) Icebergs cool the Earth down as their w__ c__ reflects the sun's UV rays back, but since temperatures are rising for other reasons and melting the ice caps, the sea does not reflect heat back to the sun as effectively.
- 3. (NATURAL FACTORS) volcanic winters have actually cooled the earth by up to __degrees.
- 4. (ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS) Higher frequency of __ and their intensity increase due to high temps and low pressure belts granting them more energy in more locations.
- 5. (ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS) As icebergs are melting from the steep increase in temperature, there are less __ for polar bears to live.
- 6. (HUMAN FACTORS) p__ s__ and powered through coal, oil, and gas which are all fossil fuels, trapping heat in the atmosphere and enhancing the greenhouse effect.
- 9. (ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS) a huge decline in b__ as more habitats are being lost due to deforestation and rising temperatures.
- 12. (SOCIAL EFFECTS) Rising sea levels affect coastal areas, making them more prone to __
- 14. (HUMAN FACTORS) cattle farming is widely significant as it revolves around removing trees for areas to graze cattle (in order to sell them as meat), which in turn releases methane as cows fart and burp, which is a greenhouse gas __% stronger than co2
- 15. (HUMAN FACTORS) deforestation reduces c__ s__, and is used for many things like logging, mining, but most significantly cattle farming.
- 18. (SOCIAL EFFECTS) Droughts are causing a loss to c__ y__, meaning farmers cannot grow food as effectively, cannot earn money, and we are lacking in food.
