Beer Is Threatened by Climate Change

https://www.sciencenews.org/article/add-beer-list-foods-threatened-climate-change

Beer can be affected by climate change by making it have a sour taste left behind after you drink it. A major ingredient in beer is called Malted Barkley and is sensitive to warmer temperatures. Before 2099 barley in crop field will decrease by 17 percent. In some countries beer price may double in price. Consumption of beer will definitely drop around 16 percent compared to what people drank in 2016. My reaction towards this current event is sort of shocking.. Knowing how many things could be affected by climate change is scary. Climate change does not just affect environmental aspects, but literally everything.

    It's a good thing we're not twenty-one and can't experience this taste, am I right? This article is just in time for us debating climate change, I would have never guessed that climate change effected beer to the point where there are articles written on it.

    That's cool that beer is affected by something as large as climate change since most people don't think of the side effects that come with the rising temperatures. This gives a reason for most people to take part in fighting climate change because most people like beer.

    Wow. I never thought climate change would have an affect on the taste of beer! It does make sense because things in the beer are grown in fields and experience fluctuating temperatures that would affect the crop.

Dual-fuel vehicles

A recent study shows that dual- fuel vehicles are benefiting the population but, turns out they are costing the environment. While substituting gasoline for ethanol gases, it causes an increase of ultra fine particle matter, with a 30% increase of atmospheric concentration. The problem is that they are less then 50 nanometers in diameter. The nano particles are also not track or regulated by the environmental agencies. We inhale these gases everyday, inhaling ethanol. The most practical way to reduce greenhouse gases is using electric, hybrid and biofuel care.   https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828124546.htm

Acid Zone in Chesapeake Bay Found

     According to the University of Delaware, the Chesapeake Bay is becoming acidic as it has gone to 7.4 pH from an average of 8.2. The oxidation of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide may be the factor that is leading to the higher acidity levels in coastal oceans, but it can eventually lead to more of open oceans. Naturally the waters of the Chesapeake Bay have a regulatory system that holds back the increase of acidity levels in the area, and this works as the dissolving of living shells, non-living aragonite, and calcite minerals. Though nature has a path to keep the waters in the Chesapeake Bay, humans should take more care of our Earth as we have a role in polluting the water and rising the acidity levels in coastal oceans. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828093737.htm
