Whether it is too hot or too cold people never really seem to be satisfied with the temperature outside, it is too humid, too windy, or too wet. But what will happen when it is too hot to go outside what then? The climate of our planet is changing at an alarming rate, never before have winters been so bearable, and heat waves so numerous. Furthermore while we may be enjoying shorter winters and hotter summers they are not without major costs. Global warming is just as the title describes it; a trend towards warmer conditions around the world. While some countries like Canada may welcome warmer temperatures, states and nations which already bask in the sun will soon have too much of a good thing. This paper will examine the effects of climate change on both Canada, and the US with specific reference to Ontario and Florida respectively, as well as providing you the reader with the necessary tools and information to effectively reduce your emissions and help get this planet on track for survival.
