3. Climate change has had several impacts on the animals of the arctic tundra. Polar bears, even though they hunt on ice and not on the tundra have seen their food supply decrease due to the melting ice. Since the polar bears can’t find food on ice they look for food in the tundra usually near humans which has led humans to have to shoot polar bears since they became too dangerous near humans.

UV0618 Rev. Feb. 8, 2011 ENRON CORPORATION’S WEATHER DERIVATIVES (A) Everybody talks about the weather, but nobody does anything about it.1 In October 2000, Mary Watts, the chief financial officer of Pacific Northwest Electric (PNW), a utility servicing the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, reviewed the financial plan for PNW’s 2000–01 forthcoming winter season.

The weather, combined with rapid deregulation in PNW’s market area, meant that the firm reported substantially no EPS growth from 1995 to 1999, in an otherwise buoyant economic setting.

A Little Boy at Christ's Christmas Tree and The Little Match Girl Not every child gets to celebrate the holidays. These two stories have examples of unfortunate children that spent their last day during the holidays wandering around town as they suffer the blistering cold and starvation when they find a Christmas tree before they die and end up in paradise. Even though the settings, afterlives, and conflicts against nature are alike in these two stories, the resolutions and external conflicts vary in many ways. The setting that took place in these two stories was during the winter and outside. The two characters face nature and try to survive it.
