Chromebook
Chromebooks
Chromebooks are useful in many ways. Like to work at home and work at work or work anywhere you want. You can do work anywhere all you need is an internet connection. You can research, collaborate and share your work with your friend in doing projects. Before we had chromebooks, we had to wait for the computers. Now when we have chromebooks, we are not to wait.
But there’s still always a bad side. One bad thing about the chrome is if you don’t have internet you basically can’t do anything. And it doesn't have much storage space to download game and applications.

Global warming
Global warming
as the sun? Will Arctic
and Antarctica melt?
Global warming starts
when heat is trapped in the earth’s surface. I can’t answer if the earth will be as hot as the sun. But if the Arctic and Antarctica melt it will affect the whole world.
The water goes to the coast of a land and water level rises results to flash flooding. It destroys buildings, farmlands and nature. It damages the place and cause a lot of homeless people. The floods will leave families in poverty. There will be more cases of flooding and droughts.
Global warming can also affect ice habitats in the Arctic and Antarctica. They will die to extinction. What will happen if there are no arctic animals like penguins, seals, polar bears in the future? What will happen to the food chain?
For hot places global warming is a high risk for disease. Sometimes there are new disease coming up for no reason.Because of the change of temperature making diseases come up.
