          For this social studies project our group has been studying global warming and how it effects Canada now and in the future in relation to PEPS. We hope our article will help people realize how they have effected the environment and give them ideas on how they can change their actions and become aware of this current crisis.

       Physical  

        Global warming effects forms of land and natural resources about more than anything across our country Canada. Since fossil fuels burn carbon dioxide into the air atmosphere and it depletes the ozone layer causing global warming.  Since global warming has carbon dioxide in it, The Arctic Ice caps melt, turning into water; therefore water levels will rise, increaseing which may cause flooding.it will dry some climates up and melt Arctic ice caps that makes some climates wet. Climates get ruined too. Climates get wet because Arctic places and Canada's glaciers melt from to much heat. When this happens Canada's land mass gets smaller. because the sea is getting higher since ice turns into water when it melts. Soon the water is so high it can sink an island. Predictions are that in a few years coastal cities like including Vancouver, Victoria, Halifax, st. johns and Charlotte town could end up flooded. Also there are predictions of more wild weather like Hurricanes, typhoons, tornado's, flooding and other natural disasters will occur in Canada. 

    Climates get ruined too. Also, when climates dry up things plants like grass and trees would die.  Soon the land isn't good enough to live in on anymore. and That also ruins life for animals and people and plants aswell as plants . Also the ozone layer will finish depleting and everything will burn and not exist.

Economic

        If Canada starts to have dry and wet climates with bad weather ( like said in the physical paragraph ) natural resources, that are made into products then sold in stores, will disappear because with bad climates they won't be able to make the products. If they disappear, economy will disappear along with most resources. Then there will be a lot of hungry people. Also, if it warms up and gets wetter there will be no more winter sports (ex: skiing snowboarding...etc.) makes a lot of money for winter resorts and winter Olympics. If that disappears economy will be just about finished and everybody will have to find their own products food and water.

   Political

      Canada's federal government, Canada's natural resources industrie and the mining industrie are having a bit of a problem sorting this out. The federal goverment doesn't have time to run the Country and settle a fight between shutting down oil and ignoring it. In the future they will be forced to shut down oil entirely but it is a main necessity to transportation. For example if global warming impacts on climate and land and coastal cities get flooded the federal government will be in charge of getting everyone to safety and into shelter on main land, so there will be more people and less room. Another example is if it's really hot, government officials won't want to walk to work in their big, black suits so they might stay home and Canada's laws will slip a little. This will cost the federal government millions of dollars.

 Social 

         When it gets too hot people don't go outside to much. In a couple years Canada will be so hot every day people won't go outside at all. Since most parties, celebrations and other meetings take place outside, there will be a lot less socialism in Canada. People will get lazy and the only way they will communicate is on the phone which also uses chemical energy and isn't as valuable. Soon Canada's culture won't be as it is now and traditions will disappear. And like we said in most of the paragraphs with climate change there is nowhere to party and no party snacks so nobody will come. Then life will  be boring and friendless.
