The Explosion
Thursday, July 30, 2009
On July 22nd,there was a forest fire in Sumatra.There is almost twice as many hot spots detected in Sumatra as at the same time last year and the year before.there was 2248 hot spots in Sumatra compared with 1218 in 2007.Last time,the haze hit Singapore hard.We were lucky that the smoke was blown away by the north wind.If the winds blew south-west,the haze would hit Singapore and would persist for months.the annual average tempreature rose to 1.4deg C, way above the long-term average.
During our Science lesson,our teacher taught us about how man harm their enviroment.It cause gobal warming,breaking of the ozone layer.Once the ozone layer is destroyed,we will be exposed to the harmful ray of the sun.Now,the north pole are melting and causing the water level to rise.It cause flooding in the lower countries and more land would be lost.Luckily,Singapore is still quite high and would take a longer time to be flooded and soon it will be the end of the world.
