De senaste 100 åren har den globala medeltemperaturen ökat i genomsnitt 0,74 grader, vilket medför stora effekter för såväl människor som djur och natur. En av de största konsekvenserna till den globala uppvärmningen är att den stigande havsnivån blir allt mer påtaglig världen över. Glaciärer och inlandsisar har börjat smälta allt mer, där avsmältningen medför en global ökning i havsnivån. HavsnivThe rising sea level is becoming more evident around the world as less as well as more developed countries are starting to fully comprehend the consequenses.

Förutom de positiva effekterna med högre skördar har detta även skapat miljöproblem. Ett av dessa är övergödning, som på sommaren orsakar den algblomning man kan se i sjöar och hav. Ett annat problem äThe Swedish agriculture has become more intense and large-scale by the use of artificial fertilizers and chemical pesticides. While the intensification has contributed to an increased harvest, it has also brought with it several environmental problems. This thesis brings up two of the main problems: eutrophication and the loss of biodiversity. These problem areas are also addressed by the Swedish

Det språk vi använder är ett sätt att visa hur vi ser på verkligheten. Löpsedelsrubriker når oss varje dag, fyllda av information om människor, information som vi får via språket. Denna information speglar då verkligheten, men faktum är att informationen eller språket även präglar och reproducerar verkligheten. Det torde alltså var av största vikt hur man uttrycker sig, det är åtminstone min utgån
