Finding Food Keeping Warm Challenges People + Animals Face Adapted to Finding a mate/ Reproducing Hiding from prey Plants have to adapt to the weather
Acute sense of sight and smell to help hunt prey Long claws to grip ice and hold prey
Animals = fauna
Shortage of water
Plants = flora
All pipes are above ground because the ground is too frozen. They use anemical toilets, for example.
Cars are left running. Special heaters are plugged into them to keep the battery warm.

The Agreement
It was an agreement negotiated by many countries in December 1997 The terms of the agreement required at least 55 parties and for the total of those parties emissions to be at least 55% of global production of greenhouse gases. It came into force with Russia's authorisation on February 16th 2005 The parties agreed to cut emissions of: - C02 - Methane - Hydrofluorocarbons - Perfluorocarbons - Sulphur hexafluoride Currently, there are 169 countries involved in the agreement
The Targets
The goals were to see the participants collectively reduce emissions of greenhouse gases by 5.2% below the emission levels of 1990 by 2010 Individual countries were assigned higher or lower targets and some countries were permitted increases (e.g: The USA was expected to reduce emissions by 7%)
C02 levels are increasing and showing no signs of slowing as the population increases and many countries begin to develop and industrialise, so it was doomed to fail. Global temperatures are continuing to rise. Without the USA agreeing to the protocol developing countries such as China reducing emissions drastically the targets will not likely be met. The Kyoto Protocol should be viewed as a stepping stone to a new drastic action. Action which must be taken now.
