My investigation on climate change

Deforestation
DEFINITION:

What are trees used for?

For wood, furniture, books, paper, stationary, houses and tools

How does deforestation effect climate change?

If there was no trees then carbon dioxide would be floating around and also keep the sun's heat trapped in the earth's atmosphere

Ice Cap melt
DEFINITION:

If all the ice melted what will happen?

The regions that are low to the sea like NZ would have some parts underwater also some marine life will die and polar animals will possibly be extinct
