Hey. So I just found a great generalized website on climate change by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. It's a great place to start looking at all the various possibilities and ideas for possible topics. One of my personal favorites was looking at the recent climate change. Due to the warm climate change, glaciers are melting which causes an increase in sea levels. Statistics from this website show that sea levels have increased about 4.8-8.8 inches during the last century. This is important because as the climate gets warmer, sea levels increase which decreases area of land.
Here is the website:

This kind of reminds me of a problem I encounterd in my ethics in climate change. whether or not climate change was bad, and if island nations are actully harmed in some way. here are some tid bits on what we read, it might be a little hard to abstract it to island nations but I think it is worth looking at.
