    Your posts should cover the questions below in full, and be at least 300 words

    long. Then reply to and peer-review at least three other posts by next Wednesday

    This week we are learning about climate change. Open the link to the IPCC report
    "Climate Change 2014” and read the “Summary for Decision Makers”.

    Then, in your own words answer the following questions (do not copy and paste things
    from the site... use your own words to answer the following questions. It is okay if your
    English is not perfect, I do not mind, I just prefer to see your own words and thoughts
    on the topic):

    1. What is this report about?

    2. What climate change vulnerabilities are identified for your region?

    3. Did they surprise you? Why or why not?

    4. Describe (in your own words) three adaptation measures that have been proposed for
    addressing global climate change in your region.

    5. In your opinion, which one is the most important? Why?

    6. Outline two steps you could take to lower your climate impact. Check the Union of
    Concerned Scientists for some ideas.

    Any materials cited should be referenced using the style guidelines established by the
    American Psychological Association (APA).
