1. How is the Philippines affected by climate change? Cite and explain five (5) evidence-based
examples in 30-50 words each. (4 points each)
a) Which of the gasses has the biggest percent growth? How were you able to get
that? (10-30 words; 3 points)
➔ Carbon dioxide is 1,000 times more frequent than other gases and is generally
measured in parts per million. Because the unit of measurement is ppm (parts per
million), 1 second in less than two weeks, 1 liter of water in a swimming pool.
280/390.5 is 0.7170. Also, multiply it by 100 to get 71.70%; if using a ppm calculator,
repeat the method but multiply it by 1 million this time to get the same result.
Among the other gases, Carbon Dioxide (CO2) has grown fastest.
b) Which of the following was not found in our atmosphere more than two centuries
ago? Explain. (10-30 words; 3 points)
➔ Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) were not present in our environment more than two
centuries ago because they are synthetic compounds invented in the late 19th
century. They were widely used in various sectors, but their manufacturing and usage
were eventually prohibited due to their ozone-depleting effects.
c) All of the natural gasses have natural sources except for CFC. What does this indicate? Please
use the data as your reference. (15-40 words; 4 points)
➔ It indicates that some gases, such as carbon dioxide, are created by both natural and
human activity. CFCs, on the other hand, are man-made compounds that do not exist
naturally in the environment. Human activities are solely responsible for the
production and emission of CFCs, notably industrial operations and CFC-containing
goods such as aerosol propellants and refrigerants. That is why they were not
discovered in our atmosphere more than two centuries ago. Furthermore, all the
gases from natural and man-made sources have had the most significant
concentrations in recent years.
3. Answer as sufficiently as possible using 100-150 words per item. (10 points each)
a) Digital Age: Are different social media platforms advantageous or disadvantageous to the
mechanics of family relations?
As a member of a digital-age family, I have pondered the implications of various social media
platforms on our familial interactions. While these platforms have unquestionable benefits,
they also have significant drawbacks. On the one hand, social media is a valuable tool for
remaining connected, especially when distance separates us. Platforms like Facebook and
Instagram allow us to share memories, exchange messages, and stay connected. Even from a
distance, we can see one another's achievements. However, I've discovered that relying too
heavily on social media could destroy the fabric of our family interpersonal relationships.
Constant distractions and the temptation of virtual connections may often surpass actual
face-to-face interactions and bonding experiences. It's upsetting to see family members hooked
to screens, immersed in the digital world, and ignoring the present moment. We must
intentionally set boundaries and time for unplugged family activities to counteract the possible
drawbacks. We can use the benefits of social media while retaining the valued mechanics of
familial connections by establishing a balance and promoting meaningful offline interaction.

biodiversity
