HI,

My name is Mansoor Abdulla ALmesaabi, I was born in Abu Dhabi, I am student at Abu Dhabi Men's College in United Arab Emirates. I have been living in Abu Dhabi before 10 years but now I’m living in Al-shahama city. My favourite happy is play football and swimming and play Sony. Now I study engineer and I hope to be civil engineer, the study is hard but interesting with my teachers and students.

I'm not married now but I will marry after I finish college to be ready to get children. I choose civil engineer because my father told me the engineers can do many things. After I finish college I hope to complete the master in England. I like American movies because it's famous and very interesting in some movies.

Blog Project- Cool Cities



Since the start of the industrial revolution, there have been some problems associated with economic development like: rises in population, increase energy consumption, traffic delay and increase in carbon dioxide be emitted into the air. If we don’t solve these problems we will need another to replace our own. By one half (50%) we will have to decrease the amount of carbon dioxide emitted into the air to live within the capacity of a single earth.

In Japan during the last 30 years GDP (Gross Domestic Product) has gone up 100 percent while energy efficiency has increase 37 percent and oil consumption has decrease 8 percent. About 90 percent of carbon dioxide emitted into the air comes from building and transportation. Cool City was building by SPCJ and also they are from Japan, there are three types of transportation that will be used in Cool City like hybrid, water taxi and gasoline electricity. Business culture greens are the various zones in the city. There are some techniques that will reduce heat by water, trees and roof membrane. 60% is the overall percentage of reduction of CO2 emissions claimed in the video.

Blog Project- Carbon Footprints



First I will take about the definition of carbon footprints which mean the amount of carbon dioxide emitted due to human activity. So I measured my carbon footprint on the two links and also I wrote the number of earth I am using for it. The first link: http://footprint.wwf.org.uk/ and the number are 2.29 planets. The second link: http://www.myfootprint.org/ and the number are 11.81 earths. After that I calculate both sites and the average were 7.05.

I get the earth equivalent results from four others students in the class: the first one his name Saleh Abdullah and the earth equivalent 6.515. The second student was Ali Hasan and the earth equivalent 6.525. The third student was Saqer Saleh and the earth equivalent 8.305. The last one was Omar Salem and the earth equivalent was 8.225. Finally I will going to talk about three ways I contribute most to greenhouse gases. The first way I don’t use bus, the second way I don’t recycle, the last way is every week I travel to Dubai.

Opinion "An Inconvenient Truth"


This subject talks about the global warming. Al Gore talks about a very important points regarding about global warming. The film includes many points about the global warming which are unproven. My opinion for this film is that it’s very important to know about global warming and the effects of global warming because many people in European continent have died from global warming.

The film style of Al Gore was very interesting and it was very serious because sometimes he smiles and other times he speaks seriously. I learnt from the film many things and new things which I didn’t know about it before. For example how global warming is effecting and changing the climate. I advise everybody to cooperate with Mr. Al Gore to face this king of problems. We should not stop up to here and say this is difficult and impossible because it’s impossible. It is just an opinion.

Global Warming _ An Inconvenient Truth

Albert Arnold Al Gore was the forty-fifth Vice President of the United States. He talks about global warming and he was awarded the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize. The film includes many segments intended to refute critics who say that global warming is unproven or that warming will be insignificant.


Al Gore in the film talks about many points like the effects of global warming. Gore said the glaciers around the world will melt and also 40% of people on earth get their drinking water from the rivers fed by glaciers. As can be shown when you compare the two graphs of temperature in the northern hemisphere and CO2 concentrations in the past 1000 years they increase together. The storms are one of the consequences if the ocean temperature rising.

Gore mentions some of the changes in ecological niches like birds and disease. Also he warns about melting water from Greenland because of its lower salinity, and also in melt water from Greenland, because of its lower salinity. We have to solve this problem together.
