Biol 346 Ecological Perspectives
Nine Credible References
Global Climate Change (Destabilization)
At this point in the unit you should be gaining some information that describes the process that
the world seems to be in called global warming (poor term) or climate change (better term) or
climate destabilization (even better term) or climate disruption (also even better term.) We are
also looking at the impacts of human activity on global biodiversity.
Your assignment is to find, assess their credibility, and abstract six references on the topic of
global climate change. You may not use our textbook by Miller or Hot, Flat, and Crowded
2.0 as part of your nine references.
In addition, three references should be the topic of biodiversity and how humans have impacted
biodiversity.
Your list of nine references should be word processed and should be presented in APA style.
Each reference should be abstracted by you. 3-4 sentences should be enough for each reference.
