Unit4 Globalwarming

【导语】全球气温变暖给南极的企鹅带来了怎样的影响,你知道吗?为了保护他们,我们应该怎么做?

Antarctica, the coldest place on Earth, is too cold for most humans.It's a different story for penguins,though.Several types of penguins make their home in Antarctica.The birds walk with short steps all over the icy continent.

However,they don't all have “happy feet”.Some of Antarctica's penguins are endangered.The animals, hunt for food in waters off Antarctica's coasts.They use floating sea ice as a place to rest while they search.In recent years, global warming, the slow rise of Earth's temperature, has been causing the ice to melt.

“Global warming is reducing the amount of food for penguins

so that they can't find enough to eat, ”scientist Shaye Wolf said.

Turning up the heat Humans may be directly responsible for the continent's temperature changes, according to a new study in the journal Nature Geoscience.Temperatures in Antarctica usually do not go above freezing, or 32 degrees Fahrenheit.But lately the weather has been heating up.

People add to global warming when they drive cars or use electricity.That burns fossil fuels, such as coal,oil,and natural gas.The burning of fossil fuels gives off gases that warm Earth.

The harmful gases stay in the atmosphere above Antarctica, researchers say.They found that the west side of the continent is especially affected by global warming.

Scientists are concerned about the possibility that Antarctica's ice may melt more over time.The icy continent is about 5 million square miles.It is covered by glaciers and an ice cap (冰冠) about 7,100 feet thick.If the ice melts, that could cause sea levels to rise around the world.Higher sea levels could lead to dangerous flooding in some countries.

Cool fix for Antarctica

Experts are hopeful that conditions in Antarctica can be improved.They say people can reduce global warming by using cars and electricity less often.Even kids can help.Wolf suggests,“Talk to your friends and family about global warming, how it is harming penguins, and how important it is to stop global warming today.”

A

The number of buses, taxis and other vehicles on Kenya’s roads is growing every day. Now, the country’s

first electric-powered motorbikes are coming into the market. The bike is designed to cut down on pollution and

aimed at low-income communities. Most motorbikes used in Kenya depend on gasoline as fuel, but not this new

motorbike.

Three university students developed the new ecotype bike. It catches the sun’s energy, stores it in batteries

and uses it to charge the electric motor. Robert Achoge is one of the student inventors. “Our hope is that by the

fifth year, we will be able to cover the whole of Kenya with the electric motorcycle so as to conserve the

environment and provide affordable transport.”

We may think we’re a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight of something shiny and new,but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices(装置) well after they go out of style.That’s bad news for the environment—and our wallets—as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things.

To figure out how much power these devices are using,Callie

Babbitt and her colleagues at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for each product throughout its life—from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device.This method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early 1990s.Devices were grouped by generation.Desktop computers,basic mobile phones,and box-set TVs defined 1992.Digital cameras arrived on the scene in
