Global warming ideas?

Question

my science fair is on global warming, but i dont know what to do...i mean i want to be original, and i dont wanna do stuff on andthe green house effect or air pollution. any ideas

Answer 1

Get a big display bored and write down everything you need too. Don't talk because that is causing there to be more greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Answer 2

Do a display about the various warming and cooling trends over the last 1000 years. You can demonstrate how previous changes helped bring about the Black Death, English wine production, the Irish Potato Famine, the classic English manor with all the windows that was necessary during the warmer period, the growth of the Mediterranean desert, the spread and decline of the VIkings, the global cooling scare of the 1920's, '50's and '70's...,

The school will fight you if you come right out and state that the whole man-made global cooling thing is a farce but you can have a lot of fun demonstrating that the Earth has constantly undergone claimactic change throughout its history and that even in relatively modern times the changes have directly affected man's history.

Answer 3

how about pointing out that it is a theory and you couldn't figure anything out for this project until they can give you evidence on it being real, i bet you will stump them .

Answer 4

ocean acidification? so far the seas have soaked up a lot of the carbon we emit, but signs are they are reaching their limit and will stop absorbing and maybe even start emitting....

Answer 5

show people that they are stupid for believing that global warming is a real thing

Answer 6

the earth is constantly bomvbarded with cosmic rays, which come from a star that blew up long long ago. When the sun is active, with sunspots, the storms stop most of the cosmic rays from reaching us and the suns heat warms us. When the sun is inactive as it is at the moment, loads of cosmic rays reach our atmosphere and cause major cloud build up. When our skys are full of thick cloud, we cool as the tops of the clouds are brilliant white, which reflects the suns rays back into space. How about that.

Edit - spanky above has a good one too, look up the 'medieval warm period' on wikipedia followed by 'the little ice age'

Answer 7

How about showing the difference in power consumption between a regular Incandescent light BulB, a compact florescent light and a LED light?
