Climate change is mainly a result of burning fossil fuels. Because of the greenhouse effect, excess heat is trapped in the Earth’s atmosphere. This then causes many issues to arise, such as global warming, the m

I love reading about these issues because I know from the publicity it is gaining there are more people who will also take a stand! I think that your post really helped to highlight the specifics like coral that are in danger because of these fossil fuels. I really appreciate that you have chosen to focus on such an important topic, especially one that I am so enthusiastic about. Thank you!

Dear Allison,
I am happy with your post, “Climate Change and the Ocean,” because I like to think about how we as a generation have to work together in order to save the future of the Earth.
One sentence you wrote that stands out for me is: “This then causes many issues to arise, such as global warming, the melting of glaciers, and the rise of sea levels.” I think this is a really good quote because it focuses on EVERYTHING that climate change impacts.
Thanks for your writing

Dear Allison,
I really liked your post “Climate Change and the Ocean” because it outlined some key facts that are important. I believe that we need to do something about this because if we wait, it will be too late. I think that we shouldn’t ignore what the science is saying and take action. How do you think we can help stop global warming?

Dear Raine,
I am impressed with your post, “Climate Change and the Ocean” because it is impressive how climate change affects our planet caused by fossil fuels. I think that fossil fuels are the cause of global warming, the melting of glaciers, and the rise in sea levels.
One sentence that you wrote that stood out to me was, “If these corals are able to recover they will have long-term damage that weakens the entire reef system.” This sentence stood out to me because pollution in corals is impactful to all the sea and coral animals that live in that coral reef ecosystem.
Thank you for your writing. I look forward to reading what you have to talk about next because I enjoyed reading your post about climate change. I would like to continue reading about any other things you have in mind.

Raine commented on the post, Flat Earth Theory: Round Earth?
Its very interesting that some people still believe that the earth is flat. I had no idea that this was something that people still have debate over.

Another contributing factor to our ocean’s poor conditions and additional cause to The Great Barrier Reef dying is ocean acidification. Ocean acidification occurs when emissions of CO2 seep into the ocean. This

I really like how you explain how bad ocean acidification really is. And its process. But I think you should look into ways we can prevent or at least slow the process of sea life being affected from our emissions.

It was a very education article that you published, I enjoyed how you had provided definitions which allowed me not only to learn more but actually understand the meaning behind it, thus understanding and affects of ocean acidification. I think it would also help if you discussed how this affected animals in the water, here is an article that discuss the affects of ocean acidification on water life and good luck with your essay. https://www.americangeosciences.org/critical-issues/faq/how-ocean-acidification-affecting-sea-life

Raine commented on the post, People's Fascination with Serial Killers
I’ve always been fascinated with topics like this, yet I did’t know why. Reading your article was really interesting to me, because I was unaware of the rationale behind people being intrigued with killers.

Raine commented on the post, Andrew Jackson in the Modern World (2)
This is fascinating. I was unaware of this part of Andrew Jackson’s campaigning. I thought it was especially interesting when you said “It was improper for gentlemen in the Revolutionary-era to publicly self-promote. Andrew Jackson changed this ideology.”

It is no secret that the effects of climate change on the ocean are becoming catastrophic.Ocean acidification and the killing of coral is dramatically affecting every part of the aquatic ecosystem. I thank you for spotlighting this important and cataclysmic event. I only wonder if you could maybe add a bit more to the article. You give a great hook to capture audiences. Expand on this more. https://www.pmel.noaa.gov/co2/story/What+is+Ocean+Acidification%3F Here is an article that talks about ocean acidification. Read this and expand and I will definitely be back read more.
