== Explanation == | |||
This card is important. It alone shows why we used to talk about global warming and now about climate change. | |||
Temperature increase is in itself a problem, but you can see on the Collage at the end that disruption of the water cycle has much more effect. | |||
== Facilitation advice == | |||
To illustrate that evaporation takes place at the surface of the water, place cards [[En-en_adult_card 17_increase_in water_temperature|17]] and [[En-en adult card 21 temperature rise|21]] on the table, place the lower edge of card 21 against the upper edge of card 17, then place card 20 at the boundary of the two, perpendicularly, to mark the surface of the water (between water and air). | |||

[[En-en adult card 18 melting of sea ice|Melting of Sea Ice]] The melting of the Arctic ice pack, but also the melting of Greenland's glaciers may lead, in the distant future, to a disruption of the thermohaline circulation (which gives rise to the Gulf Stream). But the "Water Cycle" card does not refer at all to the thermohaline circulation. | [[En-en adult card 18 melting of sea ice|Melting of Sea Ice]] The melting of the Arctic ice pack, but also the melting of Greenland's glaciers may lead, in the distant future, to a disruption of the thermohaline circulation (which gives rise to the Gulf Stream).
