Global Youth Climate Pact

Student: Ignacio Mansilla (13rd Grade)

INTRODUCTION AND PROBLEM

Climate Change can be defined as a stable and lasting change in the distribution of weather patterns in periods of time ranging from decades

to millions of years.

The rising in temperatures is the most palpable symptom of climate change, which has an anthropometric origin and is generating many

changes that are not visible to the naked e ye, as are effects on rivers, fields and oceans. The problem of climate change is presented globally

and locally, which can be very catastrophic, especially in special regions such as Chiloé Island

HYPOTHESIS AND METHODOLOGY

To generate a school plan locating meteorological stations in strategic places to have an updated climate record and

complemented with periodic measurements of the physicochemical patterns of the coast of our commune.

To locate the weather station where the most representative conditions of the sector exist, this means an outdoor place

without obstacles against the wind, sunlight and / or that prevent the correct recording of the measurements. To calibrate

correctly the instrument already installed in the designated place.

DISCUSSION AND FINAL MESSAGE

The difference between the summer and winter season, in Quellón in relation to temperature is low, being 4.22º C, while the precipitation is

RESULTADOS Y DISCUSIÓN
considerable 212.28 mm difference (2015 to 2017) The measurement made by the workshop, in comparison with the meteorological direction

of Chile, in relation to the annual temperature of Quellón is significant, evidencing an increase in temperature from 2015 to 2017.

In relation to the water accumulated in Quellón, the cadastres done by the workshop show us a significant decrease (2015 to 2017) when

compared to the measurements of the meteorological direction of Chile. Quellón compared to other Chilean cities is considered with high rates

of rainfall and low temperatures, which is confirmed by the measurements made by our workshop. Climate change is a problem that occurs in

all corners of the world, however this problem must be dealt with locally, because it manifests itself in different ways in every place in the world.

It is no longer time for small actions, it is time to change all together for a better world before it's too late, this means we have time until year

2030.
