  2. Physical features, traditions of people and/or climate

  3. What is Place?

  4. Transportation methods, imports and exports, Internet and “push and pull”.

  5. What is Movement?

  6. Kingston is 42.3ON and 77.6OW

  7. What is Location?

  8. Political divisions, tribal divisions, languages, number of religions or vegetation zones.

  9. What is Region?

  10. Global Warming, flood damage and Ozone Depletion

  11. What is Human-Environment Interactions?

  12. CO2, CH4 and NOX

  13. What are Greenhouse Gases?

  14. The layers of gas surrounding the Earth

  15. What is the atmosphere?

  16. Without this, the Earth would be 33OC colder

  17. What is the Greenhouse Effect?

  18. From atmosphere to terrestrial to within ground or ocean and back to atmosphere.

  19. What is the Carbon Cycle?

  20. When this is done to fossil fuels such as coal, oil and gas, the by-product or “waste” is carbon dioxide.

  21. What is combustion (or burning)?

  22. CFCs reacting with O3.

  23. What is depletion of the ozone layer?

  24. The ongoing, long-term changes in climate, including average temperature and precipitation, as well as changes in the seasonal or geographic variability of temperature and precipitation.

  25. What is Climate Change?

  26. Many people think incorrectly that it is the most common element in Earth’s atmosphere.

  27. What is oxygen?

  28. Many people incorrectly believe it is only caused by humans.

  29. What is Global Warming?

  30. Many people think incorrectly that this effect is entirely anthropogenic (i.e., made by humans)

  31. What is the Greenhouse Effect?

  32. To be maintained at a certain level indefinitely

  33. What is sustainability?

  34. The natural ability of trees, other plants and the soil to soak up carbon dioxide and temporarily store the carbon in wood, roots, leaves and the soil.

  35. What is a Carbon Sink?

  36. The average pattern of weather for a particular region.

  37. What is climate?

  38. Oil, coal and natural gas that originates from decayed plants and animals.

  39. What are Fossil Fuels?

  40. A resource such as water that can beused continuously without being completely depleted because it regenerates itself within a useful amount of time.

  41. What is a Renewable Resource?

  42. The percent of the total energy consumed in a washing machine to heat the water?

  43. What is 92%?

  44. The average household water consumption by one person in Canada each day?

  45. What is 300 L?

  46. The amount of CO2in weight a car emits each year.

  47. What is 3X the weight of the car?

  48. The percent reduction in present global CO2 emissions needed to stabilize atmospheric CO2 concentrations at current levels?

  49. What is between 50 and 60%?

  50. 5.2% below 1990 levels by 2010
