classifies volcanoes according to its eruptive history

Active -Erupted within historical times (within the last 600 years),
accounts of these eruptions were documented by man erupted
within the last 10,000 years based on the analyses of material from
young volcanic deposits.
ENGAGE
Potentially active (DORMANT)-Morphologically young-looking but

PROCEDURE:
Pre- Activity
Teacher asks: What do these pictures show us? Can you describe
it?

ELICIT

Credits: www.usi.edu˃GEOL161-volcanoes

Ask the student if it would be possible to dig at the center of the


earth. (The teacher may let the students use a phone application
Solar System Scope downloadable in playstore, if possible for a
more interactive learning process).
The teacher gets their prior knowledge about the three sections of
the earth. Show illustration and let them label it. Students highlights
the similarities and differences between layer of the Earth.
Emphasize that the magma and other material in the Earth’s interior
are released during volcanic eruption.

ENGAGE

Credits: raka1.fortidyndns.com˃content˃6. EarthStructure

Activity Proper
To see the effect of temperature to the formation of gas, the
students perform the activity found in the module pp.10-11 entitled
Under Pressure.

Activity 3:
Under Pressure
Objective

 describe the effect of high temperature to the formation of


EXPLORE gas

Materials
two 300 ml bottled soft drinks (must be sealed before using)
two 300 ml bottled cooking oil
two identical small basins
hot water
Procedure
1. Half – fill basin A with hot water and basin B with cold
water.

39
2. Put one bottled soda in basin A and another one in basin
B. Wait for three minutes.
3. Slowly unscrew the caps from the bottle in each basin and
observe.
4. Replace the hot water in Basin A
5. Put one of the bottled cooking oil in hot water and the
other in cold water, wait for three minutes.
6. Slowly unscrew the caps and observe.

Post - Activity
Students present their observation. Compare students’ observation
to the effect of temperature inside the earth’s interior to the
materials released during volcanic eruption. Students answer the
following questions.
1. What difference did you observe on the reaction of the soft drinks
placed in hot and cold water?
2. What is the effect of temperature to the soft drinks?
3. What difference did you observe on the reaction of the oil placed
EXPLAIN
in hot and cold water?
4. What is the effect of temperature to the oil?
5. Did the two set ups show the same degree of effect?
6. What property of oil and water is different from each other which
resulted to give different degrees in effect?
7. How will you relate temperature to the formation of bubbles in a
viscous material? Less viscous?

The teacher relates the type of magma to the type of material used
ELABORATE in the activity. Relate the behavior of soft drink and oil to the type of
magma.

Write True if the statement is correct and False if not.


1. The rocky outer layer of the earth is the crust.
2. Bubbles move fast in a less viscous liquid.
EVALUATE
3. The tendency of a hot material is to go down or sink.
4. Magma is the molten material in the earth’s interior.
5. Lava which are more viscous flow slower.

Describe the magma exhibited in the pictures below:

ARRANGING IN SEQUENCE

The following are the steps on how a geothermal power plant works, but they are not
in order. Your task is to put them in correct sequence.

Cooling tower cools the steam which condenses back to water.

When the water reaches the surface, the drop in pressure causes the water to turn
into steam.

The cooled water is pumped back into the Earth to begin the process again.

Wells are drilled deep into the Earth to pump steam or hot water to the surface.

The steam spins a turbine, which is connected to a generator that produces


electricity.

GEOTHERMAL ENERGY PROS AND CONS


by DANIEL NELSON DECEMBER 19, 2017https://sciencetrends.com/geothermal-energy-
pros-cons-true-advantage-geothermal-power/

Geothermal energy has several pros and cons which make it an ideal energy source for
specific regions. Geothermal energy pros include a passive energy source, environmentally
friendly, and low operating cost once setup. Some geothermal energy cons include high
upfront cost, the requirement to be near a geothermal energy source, and the need for
water or steam.

69
Though fossil fuels have been the predominant form of energy for society for much of
history, awareness about their scarcity and their associated environmental damage has

What Is Geothermal Energy?

The Earth is full of energy. Deep under the surface of the Earth, hot magma moves around
creating thermal energy. If you have ever witnessed a geyser spew out hot water from deep
underground, or seen images of a volcano, you’ve seen geothermal energy. Geothermal
energy as an industry means finding ways to harness this energy and utilizing it to provide
electricity to power our homes, office buildings, and factories.

Geothermal power functions by drawing up either hot water or steam from geothermal
reservoirs underground, then using the steam to turn turbines.

The closer you get to the Earth’s core, the higher the temperature becomes. The core of the
Earth is around 7600°F (or 4200°C). While some of this magma is able to escape from the
center of the earth and erupt from volcanoes as lava, most of the magma remains
underground and heats up the rocks underneath the ground. The magma also heats up
underground pockets of water, which creates geothermal reservoirs. There are various ways
of tapping into these geothermal reservoirs and extracting geothermal energy for use.

One of the methods of extracting geothermal energy is through geothermal power plants.
These are facilities which are created to pipe the heated water up from underground, then
they use this hot water and the steam it produces to generate electricity. Geothermal power
plants use a variety of methods to produce electricity. The different types of geothermal
power plants include binary cycle pants, flash steam plants, and dry steam plants.

70

Energy.gov, Public Domain

Binary cycle geothermal plants pass the hot water from geothermal work reservoirs through
a heat exchanger, which takes the heat from the water and transfers it to an industrial fluid
that has a lower boiling point. The heating of that industrial fluid creates steam, which turns
turbines and produces electricity. Meanwhile, both flash steam plants and dry steam plants
utilize the steam from the hot water in geothermal reservoirs to power turbines. Dry steam
plants pipe the steam itself up in geothermal reservoirs, while flash steam plants draw up
some of the water which then turns to steam.

Other methods of harnessing geothermal energy include geothermal heat pumps and direct
geothermal energy. In the case of direct geothermal energy, this means pumping up hot
water directly from the geothermal reservoirs and running it through a heat exchanger to
heat a building. This is only possible when a geothermal reservoir, like a hot spring, is near
the Earth’s surface. A geothermal heat pump, by contrast, uses a system of pipes under a
building to regulate a building’s temperature. The heat from warm water can be pulled out
with a heat exchanger and used to heat a house or other building, while the process can be
reversed in the summer and the building cooled thanks to the water running beneath it.

Geothermal power plants offer up a host of benefits over other forms of energy, including
fossil fuels. In general, they are a much more efficient and cleaner method of harnessing
energy than burning fossil fuels. However, they also come with some drawbacks as well.

The Pros of Geothermal Energy

Harnessing geothermal energy is a highly efficient process, which produces few to no


emissions, and is extremely reliable and renewable.

Geothermal Energy Pros:


It is a renewable energy source

The energy formation is highly efficient

71
Does not emit greenhouse gases such as CO2

Long-term savings after installation

Low operating costs

A reliable and abundant source of energy

Renewable

Unlike fossil fuels, which are of a finite quantity, geothermal energy is renewable. As long as
the earth exists, there will be geothermal energy for us to use. This means that while some
fossil fuels could potentially run out a few decades, geothermal energy will be a viable form
of energy for billions of years to come.

Highly Efficient

Using geothermal energy is extremely efficient. Because the heat energy can be drawn out
of the water so easily, it can be used to produce electricity and heat houses with very little
energy wasted. There are also few outside costs associated with geothermal energy, with no
fuel being needed for the harnessing of geothermal energy from water as an example.

No Emissions

Geothermal energy has the least environmental impact on any form of energy production.
No emissions are released from the process of extracting thermal power from geothermal
reservoirs, meaning that its carbon footprint is essentially zero. There may be a few
emissions involved in the construction of a geothermal power plant.

Significant Savings

Using geothermal energy can save homeowners a significant amount of money. Heating and
cooling houses with pipes can cut energy bills by between 25% to 60% every year, which is
enough to offset the investment costs of a geothermal heating/cooling system in only a few
years.

Reliable and Abundant

Other forms of alternative energy, such as solar and wind power, are less stable and reliable
than geothermal power. While wind can die down and the sun only shines for part of the
day, geothermal power is reliable and constant, which makes them excellent ways to meet
base energy demands.

The Cons of Geothermal Energy


The biggest drawbacks of geothermal energy include high initial investment costs, the fact
that it is only usable in certain regions, and that it can create geologic instability.

Geothermal energy cons:

Can only be installed in certain locations that have a geothermal heat source

High initial investment to build and install

Sometimes requires pumping of fluids into the Earth, causing a host of potential issues

72
Sometimes requires discharge which can be environmentally damaging

Energy output could vary through time

Limited to Certain Areas

Geothermal power in only viable in certain regions of the world where geothermal
reservoirs exist. This is much like how sufficient deposits of gas and other fossil fuels only
exist in certain regions.

High Initial Price Point

Those who are interested in using geothermal energy to cool and heat their houses will have
to invest between $10,000 to $20,000 dollars. While the costs would pay themselves off in
around 5-10 years, the startup cost can be prohibitively expensive.

Creates Instability

Geothermal power plants can create geologic instability. Hydraulic fracturing is a process
used to obtain geothermal power, and it can cause earthquakes by altering the fundamental
structure of the land the plant sits on.

Environmentally Damaging Discharge

While geothermal energy doesn’t emit greenhouses gases, the processes involved with the
creation of geothermal power plants can pollute the environment. The process of digging
geothermal wells often releases greenhouse gas into the atmosphere, and compounds like
silica can be discharged during this process as well.

Sustainability Worries

Though geothermal power is typically considered a sustainable resource, overuse of


geothermal reservoirs can deplete them. Geothermal reservoirs refill after rainwater
penetrates into the ground, but in order for these reservoirs to be sustained, they must be
carefully utilized so that the rate of use does not exceed the rate of replenishment.
Geothermal power plants must carefully manage how they use geothermal reservoirs for
them to be truly sustainable.

Ultimately geothermal energy provides clean and renewable energy, but it is limited in use
to regions with viable geothermal reservoirs.

Materials and Equipment

 Clean metal can with one lid removed, 14.5-ounces [428.8162 ml]; available
at any grocery store
 Hammer
 Nail, 1/8-inch diameter
 Wood ruler or thin piece of wood, 12 inches long
 Rubber bands (2)
 Medium-sized pot, 3 quarts [2.83906 liters]
 Aluminum foil
 Stove top
 Pinwheel, available at toy stores or novelty stores
o Note: many store-bought pinwheels require a strong, consistent
breeze to make them spin. The steam coming from the pot in this
project might not be enough to make them spin. If you buy a pinwheel
that does not work, you can try making your own homemade pinwheel
using an aluminum pie pan.
 Permanent marker
 Timer
 Oven mitts
 Lab notebook
 Graph paper

Experimental Procedure

Note: You will be working with a hot stove top. Please exercise caution when
working with hot surfaces and with steam. Steam can cause painful burns.

83
1. Using the hammer and nail, make a hole at the edge of the lid that is still
attached. Make another hole directly opposite the first hole. Both holes
should be no larger than 1/8 inch in diameter.
2. Attach the ruler, vertically, to the side of the can, using rubber bands.
Position the ruler so that it is between the two holes. Make sure that the
bottom edge of the ruler is flush with the bottom edge of the metal can. The
can and ruler should not be tilted when placed on a flat surface. The open
end of the can should be facing down. See Figure 3.

Figure 3. The can and ruler


assembly is a model of a
geothermal power plant.

3. Fill your 3-quart pot with 2 quarts (or just over half full) of tap water. Take a
piece of aluminum foil and place it on top of the pot. Crimp the foil down over
the edges of the pot so that the water is sealed in. Take another piece of foil
and place it on top of the first piece of foil. Crimp the second piece to ensure
that when the water boils, no steam can get out from the edges. The foil-
covered pot models the earth. The aluminum foil is the crust, covering the
heat that is within the earth.
4. Gently poke a hole in the center of the aluminum foil pieces, using the nail.
Make sure that the nail goes through both layers of aluminum foil. The hole
should be no larger than 1/8 inch in diameter.
5. Turn the stove top on medium to medium high and place the pot on top of
the flame or hot surface. Note the setting of the stove top in your lab
notebook in a data table like the one shown below. The heat setting should
be hot enough to boil water; however, make sure that the water doesn't boil
so heavily that water hits the foil.
6. Make one large mark on the back of the pinwheel at the base of the spokes
with the permanent marker. You want to be able to see the mark clearly
while the pinwheel is spinning.
7. Wait for the water to boil. When you see steam coming out of the hole and
the foil cover is slightly inflated, you are ready to start the experiment.
8. Get your timer ready. Place the can and ruler on top of the hole in the foil.
Let the can sit undisturbed for 30 seconds. This represents a power plant
collecting steam from a reservoir in the earth.
9. Now it's time to test your model. Hold the pinwheel, facing down, above the
can over both holes. See Figure 4, below. Make sure that the ruler is not in
the way of the pinwheel and that the pinwheel is parallel to the can's top. If
necessary, push the ruler down gently so that the can doesn't move too
much. The pinwheel will start spinning. Note the height at which you are
holding the pinwheel. You can use the ruler to determine the height. Write
this number down in your lab notebook.

84
10. If your pinwheel does not spin at all, it might have too much friction to be
powered by the steam in this project. You will need to make your own
homemade pinwheel that spins more easily. To make it easier to hold the
homemade pinwheel over a pot of boiling water, you can puncture a straw
with the wooden skewer, as shown in Figure 5. This will allow you to hold the
pinwheel from the side, but make sure you still wear oven mitts.

11. You're ready to start the experiment. First note the location of the mark on
the back of the pinwheel. Each time you see that mark reach that location
again, the pinwheel has made a complete spin. Count the number of
complete spins in 20 seconds. Use the timer to keep track of time and the
mark you made on the pinwheel to count the number of spins. Record the
number of complete spins in 20 seconds in your lab notebook. Repeat this
step two more times and record the
information in your lab notebook.
12. Use the oven mitt and remove the can from
the top of the pot and place it to the side.
Now hold the pinwheel over the hole in the
foil at the same height as in step 11. You
might need a helper to hold the ruler near
the pan, flush with the aluminum foil, but in
the air, so you can see how high you should Figure 5 An example of a
be holding the pinwheel. Count the number homemade pinwheel made using
of complete spins the pinwheel makes in 20 an aluminum pie plate, a straw, and
seconds. Use the timer to keep track of time. a wooden skewer.
Record the information in your lab notebook.
Repeat this step two more times and record all information in your lab
notebook. Holding the pinwheel over the bare foil without the can represents
the power of geothermal steam from the earth without a power plant.

13. Take the pot off the flame or hot surface and let it cool down. After it has
cooled down, you can leave the water that's in the pot, simply adding some

85
more to fill the pot just past half full. Carefully undo the foil, add the water,
and crimp the foil back onto the pot. Now use the nail and poke eight more
holes in both aluminum foil layers around the edge of the pot. The holes
should be no bigger than 1/8 inch in diameter. You can reuse the same
pieces of aluminum foil, but if the foil rips, remove it and replace it with two
layers of aluminum foil, poking a hole in the center, as in step 4. The holes in
the foil represent openings in the earth over the geothermal reservoir. If there
are many openings around a geothermal reservoir, there are many ways for
steam and heat to escape (so this simulates a situation where not all the
steam from a reservoir is collected by the power plant, and some just
escapes into the atmosphere).

Figure 6. Counting number of spins over bare foil

14. Turn on the stove top to the setting recorded in your lab notebook from step
5. Once the water is boiling and there is steam coming out of the holes, place
the can and ruler on top of the hole in the middle of the foil and pot. Use your
timer and let it sit there for 30 seconds. Now hold the pinwheel above the can
and the two holes at the same height as recorded in your lab notebook from
step 11. Count the number of complete spins that the pinwheel makes in 20
seconds. Use the timer to keep track of time. Repeat this step two more
times and record all information in your lab notebook.
15. Use the oven mitt and remove the can from the pot and place it to the side.
Now hold the pinwheel over the hole in the center of the foil at the same
height as in step 11. Again, you might need a helper to hold the ruler near
the pan, flush with the aluminum foil, but in the air, so you can see how high
you should be holding the pinwheel. Get your timer ready. Count the number
of complete spins the pinwheel makes in 20 seconds and write the value in
your lab notebook. Repeat this step two more times and write all of the
information in your lab notebook.
16. Remove the pot from the flame or hot surface and let it cool down. Repeat
step 12, this time poking 12 more holes in the foil around the edge of the pot
(for a total of 20 holes around the edge) and repeat steps 13-14.
17. What does poke holes around the edge of the foil do? Does it affect the
number of pinwheel spins when the pinwheel is over just the foil? Does it
affect the number of pinwheel spins when the pinwheel is above the can?
18. Graph the information in your lab notebook on a scatter plot.

86
19. Make two different scatter plots, one showing the recorded data with the can
on top of the pot and one without the can on top of the foil. For both plots,
label the x-axis Holes Around the Edge and the y-axis, Average Number of
Pinwheel Spins. The can on top of the foil models a geothermal power plant.
What kind of conclusion can you make about how geothermal power plants
work?

Students answer the guide questions.
1. What happens to the water when heated?
2. How can water vapor move the turbine?
Use a flowchart to describe how energy is transformed to
generate electricity in a geothermal power plant.
Answers:
1. The water undergoes physical change. The water becomes
EXPLAIN
steam or water vapor.
2. As water is changed to vapor, it moves very fast making the
turbine rotates.
3. Thermal energy from inside the earth - mechanical
energy in a turbine – mechanical energy of a generator
– electrical energy.

The teacher discusses the following steps followed to generate


electricity in a geothermal power plant.
1. Wells are drilled deep into the earth to pump steam or hot
water to the surface.
2. When the water reaches the surface, the drop-in pressure
causes the water to turn into steam.

students to name them.

(Mount Mayon in Albay


ELICIT
Bulusan Volcano in Sorsogon
Taal Volcano in Batanggas
Mount Pinatubo in Zambales
Musuan Volcano in Bukidnon)
Have you seen Mount Mayon erupting?
What are the signs of an impending volcanic eruption?
Will you describe an erupting volcano?
Is it dangerous living near a volcano?
ENGAGE
(Answers may vary)
The following are commonly observed signs that a volcano is about
to erupt:
1. Increase in the frequency of volcanic quakes with rumbling

91
sounds; occurrence of volcanic tremors;
2. Increased steaming activity; change in color of steam
emission from white to gray due to entrained ash;
3. Crater glow due to presence of magma at or near the crater;
4. Ground swells (or inflation), ground tilt and ground fissuring
due to magma intrusion;
5. Localized landslide, rockfalls and landslides from the summit
area which are not attributable to heavy rains;
6. Noticeable increase in the extent of drying up vegetation
around the volcano’s upper slopes;
7. Increase in the temperature of hot springs, wells near the
volcano;
8. Noticeable variation in chemical content of springs, crater
lakes within the vicinity of the volcano;

A student locates the Philippines in the map/ globe.
To what region is the Philippines located? What climate do we
ENGAGE experience? Now, in this activity you will find out the role of latitude
in varying the climate of different places.

Activity Proper
EXPLORE Students do the activity.

94
Introduce activity 1- “When the Sun’s Rays Strike” as paper- and –
pen activity. (Philippines is located in the tropical region. It is located
in the latitude near the equator.)
Students study the given illustration then answer the guide
questions.

Guide Questions:
1. How much is the tilt of the earth’s axis?
2. Which part of the earth receives most of the sun’s rays?
3. Why does the amount of heat received by places far from
the equator become less?
4. Why are the coldest places on Earth found near the poles?
5. Why are places with high temperature found at the equator?
6. How does latitude affect climate?

Post - Activity
The teacher guides the students in answering the questions.
Answers to the guide questions:
1. The earth is tilted 23.5
2. The equator receives most of the sun’s rays.
3. It is due to the tilting of the earth’s axis and the shape of the
earth.
4. Places found near the poles are the coldest because they
EXPLAIN
receive less amount of heat.
5. Due to the tilting of the earth’s axis, places near the equator
receive more heat making the air temperature higher.
When the area is farther from the equator¸ the air temperature is
lower resulting in a cold climate. When the place is closer to the
equator, the air temperature is higher which results in a warm
climate.
Lecture- Discussion
The teacher facilitates the discussion emphasizing the relation
between latitude and climate.
When an area is farther from the equator, the air temperature is
ELABORATE lower resulting in a cold climate. When the place is closer to the
equator, the air temperature is higher which results in warm climate.

What is the relationship between latitude and climate?


EVALUATE (The closer the latitude to the equator, the higher the temperature,
the warmer the places located in it, and the farther the latitude to the

95
equator, the lower the temperature, the colder the places located in
it.)
The Philippines is located in the latitude near the equator. How
would you relate this to the climate the Philippines has? (The
Philippines is located in the latitude near the equator. Since equator
receives much more radiant energy released by the sun, so places
EXTEND near the equator have warm climate.)
What about those located near the poles? What can you say
about their climate? (The areas closer to the poles receive less
amount of energy because the angle of sunlight becomes smaller,
so the colder these places are.)

Why do mountain climbers wear jacket and thick clothes when they
go up the mountains?
(The air temperature decreases as altitude increases. At higher

PROCEDURE: A B
Pre- Activity

Recall:
How latitude, altitude and proximity to bodies of water affect
climate.
 Areas located in latitude near the equator receives much
more energy released by the sun, thus have warm climate.
While areas closer to the poles receives less amount of
energy because the angle of sunlight becomes smaller, so
the colder these places are.
 The air temperature decreases as altitude increases. At
ELICIT higher elevation, there is less air. The air molecules are
farther apart, thus making the air less dense. Lighter air
cannot absorb much heat making air temperature lower and
vice versa.
 The climate of the place is influenced by the surrounding
bodies of water. Soil absorbs heat faster than water. At the
same time, soil releases heat faster compared to water.
These slow absorption and release of heat by the body of
water greatly affect climate.

Now, we are going to explore another factor that influence climate.


Are you familiar with Leeward and Windward?

 Unlocking of Difficulties
The teacher asks the students to define the following terms.
a. Windward
ENGAGE b. Leeward
c. Rain shadow
(Windward side- the side which faces the prevailing wind (upwind)
Leeward side – the side sheltered from the wind by the mountain’s
very elevation (downwind)
Rain shadow –the area located on the leeward side of the mountain
that receives low amounts of precipitation.)
Activity Proper
The teacher presents a video clip that shows the different sides of
the mountain, leeward and windward sides.

For video presentation:

can be used.
EXPLORE
Guide Questions:
1. Which side of the mountain is the windward side?
2. What do you notice about the windward? Why is it green?
3. What kind of climate would make this side so green?
4. What might the weather be like more often in this side?
5. Which is the leeward side?
6. What do you notice about the leeward side of the mountain?
Why does it look so brown?

109
7. What kind of climate would make this side so brown?
8. What might the weather be like there most often?

Answers:
1. The area in which the wind blows is the windward.
2. The windward side is so green because it is covered with
vegetation.
3. The windward side gets more precipitation thus it has low
temperature which means more vegetation making the side
color green.
4. It is most of the time raining in this area.
5. The side of the mountain where there is no cloud formation.
The temperature is high and precipitation does not happen.
6. It looks so brown because there is no vegetation.
7. The leeward side of the mountain has dry climate.
8. The leeward side becomes dry and has less precipitation.
This dry region in the leeward side is called the rain shadow.
Post - Activity
EXPLAIN Lead the discussion of the students’ answers to guide questions.
Use the illustration on page 191 of the LM to show how the
northeast trade wind affect weather.

Explain that the trade winds hit the windward side and the air cools
as it rises up the slope of the mountain and condenses, leading to
clouds and rain. On the leeward side of the mountain, the climate is
warmer and drier, as the air moves down the opposite side of the
ELABORATE mountain, it loses its moisture and warms up.

Explain also to the students that rain shadow is seldom found in the
Philippines because our country is surrounded by bodies of water.
Another reason is that the Philippines has two local winds systems
such as the habagat and amihan. These local winds bring
precipitation in every part of the Philippines.

 Study the picture.


 Identify the part of the mountain that clearly shows leeward
and windward side. (2pts)
 Describe the climate on leeward and
Windward side on your own words. (8pts)

4. more heat is trapped
5. burning fossil fuels since the Industrial Revolution has contributed to more
than one-third increase in carbon dioxide
6. 280 parts per million (ppm) 400 000 years ago; today it is 400 ppm
7. Climate change which means rising global temperature causes melting of ice
sheets that in turn leads to a rise in sea level that result to more flooding in
coastal areas. The warmer temperatures also make weather more extreme
weather like more intense major storms, and longer and frequent droughts.
The erratic weather can cause disruption in food and water supply.
8. Our health is affected because of smog formation which proliferates in
warmer temperatures. Smog can cause asthma, heart disease, and lung
cancer.
9. We can combat the rapid rate of climate change by replacing fossil fuels with
renewable sources of energy like wind and solar power.

Warmer, more extreme climate likely in PH by 2050, 2100


by John Leo C. Algo, Contributor July 20, 2018
Source:https://www.sunstar.com.ph/article/1753759

THE Philippine climate is poised to become warmer and more unpredictable, a report by the
Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa)
stated.

The agency produced an updated set of projections on temperature and rainfall changes by
2050 and 2100, given the recent impacts of climate change in the country in a nearly one-
degree warmer world.

"Observed current impacts in the country are already seen to highly affect the economy, as
well as other things such as settlement and infrastructure, health and well-being, and natural
ecosystems albeit the proper attribution to climate change being very limited," said Lourdes
Tibig, one of the scientist-authors of the report.

The study revealed that the country is warming by 0.1 degree Celsius every decade and this
number would continue to rise in the future.

In a scenario marked by high carbon emissions, the warming could reach up to 1.2 to 2.3
degrees Celsius by 2050 and from 2.5 to 4.1 degree Celsius by 2100.

While all regions will experience similar warming, the impacts will vary by locale. For
instance, the planting and harvesting patterns of farmers in Central Luzon might be severely
affected by warmer environments. In urban areas, demand for refrigerators and air-
conditioning units could increase to cope with warmer environments.

Meanwhile, rainfall patterns will change, with variations depending on the region and season.
Drier conditions throughout the year would be experienced in most of Mindanao by 2050,
indicating an increased chance of droughts. These areas are reliant on stable water supply for
agricultural production and energy generation, being hit the hardest by the El Niño-enhanced
event of 2015-16.

In contrast, Aastern Visayas and the Bicol region, which are frequently hit by tropical
cyclones, would become more prone to flooding and storm surges during these months. The
city of Tacloban in Leyte and surrounding communities notably experienced the most
destructive impacts of Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan) in November 2013.

Under a high-emissions scenario, the number of tropical cyclones affecting the Philippines
may decrease, yet their intensity would probably increase.

Sea level rise would reach up to 20 centimeters by 2050, potentially displacing entire coastal
communities to more inland areas and causing more pressure on the country's natural
resources.

These findings highlight the urgency of reducing carbon emissions to achieve the 1.5-degree
limit under the Paris climate agreement in both industrialized and developing countries. It
also stresses the importance for national and local government units to formulate and
implement climate change adaptation plans to increase community resilience to future

127
disasters and other impacts.

"Care should be exercised in deciding how to interpret the ranges of changes in each of the
climate variables. Local community-based observations can and should be used to calibrate
the projected changes," Tibig said.

ELICIT CAESAR to CASSIUS (SHAKESPEARE)


“I could be convinced if I were like you. If I could beg
others to change their minds, begging would convince
me, too. But I’m as immovable as the northern star,
whose stable and stationary quality has no equal in the
sky. The sky shows countless stars. They’re all made of

161
fire, and each one shines. But only one among all of
them remains in a fixed position. So it is on earth. The
world is full of men, and men are flesh and blood, and
they are capable of reason. Yet out of all of them, I know
only one who is unassailable, who never moves from his
position. To show you that that’s me, let me prove it a
little even in this case. I was firm in ordering that Cimber
be banished, and I remain firm in that decision.”

11. If a person travels

Tawi, what happens to

Why?
(Polaris (or the North Star) is almost directly above the North
pole. This means that when you stand on the north pole and
look directly up, you will see Polaris. This also means that
when you stand at the equator and look directly north, you will
see Polaris on the horizon. You cannot see Polaris from the
Southern Hemisphere. The angle Polaris is above the horizon
is equal to the degree latitude that you are standing on.
Therefore, at the equator, Polaris is 0 degrees above the
horizon and at the north pole, Polaris is 90 degrees above the
horizon)

(cse.ssl.berkeley.edu/lessons/indiv/beth/beth_visualize.
html)
Have two students stand back-to-back. One student will
represent the Sun. and the other will represent the
Earth.
Have twelve other students make a circle by standing
around the two central figures.
Remind students that the Earth is constantly rotating
around its axis, but for the purposes of this activity, we
will limit rotational motion.
Give each of the twelve students one of the handouts
with the individual signs of the Zodiac. Make sure that
ELABORATE
the students place themselves in the proper order
around the circle. Here's an example:
Aries stands in the West, with Taurus and Gemini in
the Southwest.
Cancer stands in the South, with Leo and Virgo in the
Southeast.
Libra stands in the East, with Scorpio and Sagittarius in
the Northeast.
Capricorn stands in the North, with Aquarius and
Pisces in the Northwest.
When the "Earth" has his/her back to the "Sun," the
person is looking at the nighttime sky. When the "Earth"
is facing the "Sun," the person is looking at the daytime
sky.
Have each "Earth" stand so that the "Sun" blocks the

186
view of their own astrological birth sign.
Have each "Earth" answer the following questions:
When I face the Sun, what time is it? [NOON]
Which constellation of the Zodiac is straight ahead of
me? [ANSWERS WILL VARY]
Why is this constellation hidden from my view?
[BECAUSE I AM LOOKING AT THE DAYTIME SKY
AND THE SUNLIGHT IS BLOCKING MY VIEW OF
THE STARS]
When I turn my back to the Sun, what time is it?
[MIDNIGHT]
Which constellation is straight ahead of me? [VARIOUS
ANSWERS]
Now have each "Earth" turn so that the "Sun" is next to
his/her right shoulder.
Have each "Earth" answer the following questions:
When the Sun is on my right, what time is it? [DUSK]
Which constellation is straight ahead of me? [VARIOUS
ANSWERS]
When the Sun is on my left, what time is it? [DAWN]
Which constellation is straight ahead of me?
NOTE: FOR EACH DIFFERENT ZODIACAL SIGN,
SOME OF THE ANSWERS WILL ALSO BE
DIFFERENT.
Try to have as many different zodiacal signs
represented as the "Earth" as you can. In this way,
students should be able to see that at different times of
