Today was our last wrap-up class of this unit, where we reinforced the issues and threats facing glaciers and ice sheets that arose in the webquest.
Here is the powerpoint: Glacier Issues and Problems that we used to dissect some of the key issues facing glaciers, and in particular the Arctic.
In addition, here is an article by WWF that discusses specific impacts on animal species if oil and gas drilling takes place in the Arctic. It discusses the impacts on specific species such as belugas, etc.
