b) What solutions have been proposed?

c) What priority have these reports about climate change been given in the newspapers in your country?

d) Which headline caught your eye and impressed you the most? Explain the reason why.

e) Which headline would you give an article about climat change?

a) In the newspaper there was a short summary of an article in the magazine "science". It said that shrimps had a problem with climate change because the date when the new generation of shrimps hatches out is determined by the water temperature. Because of the warming of the oceans the shrimps possibly hatch before their main nourishment (an alga) has grown.

b) The article did not propose any solution to the problem. Obviously, to stop climate change would be the solution.

c) There are very few articles about climate change, in the newspaper I searched this was the only one and it was very short.
