The Effect of Climate Change




              One of the effects of climate change is that the way of people’ lives in a small island could be threatened. First of all, getting high temperatures have a climactic affect Arctic ice; for example, Handwerk (2004) states “since 1978, Arctic sea ice area has shrunk by some 9 percent per decade and has thinned as well”. This shows that melting ice has flowed into Arctic sea, and it makes the sea levels rise. For example, Kakissis (2010) explains that a small island such as Bangladesh situated only a couple of meters aloft on sea level and is customarily assailed by cyclones and floods. This demonstrates that some disasters triggered by climate change could put people’s lives in danger. After that, the grate number of people have to move the city as environmental refugees; moreover, “rapid and unplanned urbanization is expected to put even further strains on scarce water, energy and food resources” Kakissis (2010) says. In conclusion, the climate change could cause melting ice, rising sea levels, and it makes people in a small island expel from their villages; consequently, it cause a lack of some resources.

    You have some good information here but there is a problem with your quotation sandwiches: They run into one another. Look at this example, "This shows that melting ice has flowed into Arctic sea, and it makes the sea levels rise. For example, Kakissis (2010) explains that a small island such as Bangladesh situated only a couple of meters aloft on sea level and is customarily assailed by cyclones and floods.". Your 'comment' for one quote and the 'idea' of the other quote are the same. However, they do not really go together. 85
