Hi Mr. wood,

      Hello its Serena Perez from period your period 3 class.  I wanted to response to the question number two of who are these people being effected?  My answer is that every one will be effected because they will need to change the way they live, but the people who are mostly going to be effected are people who live near the coast and people who live in arctic areas.  I think they will be effected because the sea level will rise and the people will have to move to higher ground.  The people that live in arctic regions will have to move because the permafrost will melt and there wont be any solid ground.  the countries that these people are being effected by are alaska, russia, and anywhere that has beaches.  All of us miss you and were hoping you are having fun in  alaska.  

                                                                                                                                                                                                                     your favorite student,

Thank you for the comments. I miss you guys too. Good thinking on the question! We are having lots of fun up here!Mr. Wood

Good questions. The ozone hole takes many years to form. The one over the Antarctic was discovered back in the 1970's. Replying to all of your questions is my homework, and I never miss my homework! I hope to be back in time to see your story.Mr. Wood
