Albedo feedback is a positive feedback climate process where a change in the area of ice caps, glaciers, and sea ice alters the albedo and surface temperature of a planet. ... However, if warm temperatures decrease the ice cover and the area is replaced by water or land the albedo would decrease.
There's three types of plate boundaries:
- Collision plate boundaries (where two or more plates of the same density collide )
- Adjacent plate boundaries (where two or more plates slide against each other)
- Subduction plate boundaries (where one or more plates with lesser density are subducting below the the plate that has bigger density).
Climate change has multiple effects on people and animals.
Every American is vulnerable to climate change impacts on their health at some point in their lives.
Climate change can have a range of impacts on physical, mental, and community health.
A warmer climate is expected to increase the risk of illnesses and death from extreme heat and poor air quality.
Climate change will likely increase the frequency and strength of extreme events (such as floods, droughts, and storms) that threaten human health and safety.
Climate changes may expose more people to diseases.
Some groups of people (e.g., the very young and the very old) are especially vulnerable to health impacts.
