Alaska
The state bird of Alaska is the Willow Ptarmigan, Jewel is a pop singer from Alaska, and Mount McKinley is the highest point in the state of Alaska. Dog sledding is also a popular sport there.
Arctic Animals
Polar bears are the largest land carnivores. They can grow up to 10 feet long and weigh 1,700 pounds. Males are larger than females. Polar bears have thick fur to insulate them from the cold, with hollow guard hairs that act like drinking straws. They are well adapted for life in the Arctic, with large paws and the ability to swim. Polar bears hunt seals and can consume up to 150 pounds of meat at once. They communicate through growls, roars, and body language.

The 4 parts of the course paper:
Part 1: Lithosphere
- For each country, what is one major geologic feature (can include mountains, desert, plains, coast, etc)?
- Briefly describe these features, how they came to look like how they do today.
- How are humans using these features (tourism, nature reserve, sacred lands, extracting resources, etc)?
- Does human use of these features create concern for the future of these features, or the wildlife found on them? If so, explain how.
- Print pictures of the geologic features, or maps showing where these features are located, and attach them to the back of the paper.
Part 2: Atmosphere
- For each country, describe the year-round climate found in the majority of the country (climate maps will help with this). If there is a wide variety of climate types in one country, just pick one city and describe its climate. Be sure to include information about temperature, precipitation, and seasonal changes in both, such as the extremes of the temperature and precipitation differences.
- Has climate change already impacted these nations (whether the people or the natural environment)? How so?
- What is one major concer.

**Exploring Our World: A Journey Through Geography**
In today's geography lesson, we embark on an exciting exploration of the diverse landscapes, cultures, and phenomena that shape our planet. From towering mountain ranges to vast oceans, and bustling cities to remote wilderness areas, geography provides us with a lens through which to understand the interconnectedness of our world.
Our journey begins by examining the fundamental concepts of geography, including the Earth's physical features, such as landforms, bodies of water, and climate patterns. Through interactive maps, videos, and hands-on activities, students will gain a deeper appreciation for the forces that have shaped the Earth's surface over millions of years.
Next, we delve into the rich tapestry of human geography, exploring the cultural diversity, economic activities, and political landscapes that define different regions around the globe. From the ancient civilizations of Mesopotamia to the modern-day megacities of Asia, students will learn how human societies interact with their environments and each other.
Throughout the lesson, we emphasize the importance of geographic skills such as map reading, spatial analysis, and critical thinking. By honing these skills, students will not only better understand the world around them but also become more informed and responsible global citizens.
As we conclude our lesson, students will have the opportunity to reflect on the interconnectedness of our world and consider the implications of geographic factors on contemporary issues such as climate change, migration, and sustainable development.
By the end of this lesson, students will have gained a newfound appreciation for the complexity and beauty of our planet and will be inspired to continue their exploration of geography both inside and outside the classroom. Join us on this exciting journey as we uncover the wonders of our world!

**Exploring Our World: A Journey Through Geography**
In today's geography lesson, we embark on an exciting exploration of the diverse landscapes, cultures, and phenomena that shape our planet. From towering mountain ranges to vast oceans, and bustling cities to remote wilderness areas, geography provides us with a lens through which to understand the interconnectedness of our world.
Our journey begins by examining the fundamental concepts of geography, including the Earth's physical features, such as landforms, bodies of water, and climate patterns. Through interactive maps, videos, and hands-on activities, students will gain a deeper appreciation for the forces that have shaped the Earth's surface over millions of years.
Next, we delve into the rich tapestry of human geography, exploring the cultural diversity, economic activities, and political landscapes that define different regions around the globe. From the ancient civilizations of Mesopotamia to the modern-day megacities of Asia, students will learn how human societies interact with their environments and each other.
Throughout the lesson, we emphasize the importance of geographic skills such as map reading, spatial analysis, and critical thinking. By honing these skills, students will not only better understand the world around them but also become more informed and responsible global citizens.
As we conclude our lesson, students will have the opportunity to reflect on the interconnectedness of our world and consider the implications of geographic factors on contemporary issues such as climate change, migration, and sustainable development.
By the end of this lesson, students will have gained a newfound appreciation for the complexity and beauty of our planet and will be inspired to continue their exploration of geography both inside and outside the classroom. Join us on this exciting journey as we uncover the wonders of our world!

The document discusses the debate around drilling for oil in Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR). It provides background on Alaska's history with oil development and native land rights. Both sides of the ANWR issue are explored, with arguments that drilling could harm wildlife like caribou and disrupt native communities, while supporters see it as important for U.S. energy and Alaska's economy. New technologies are said to enable more environmentally-friendly drilling, but critics argue any oil development would still industrialize the pristine area. Public opinion in Alaska generally favors drilling, but native groups like the Gwich'in oppose it.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
