2. What was your topic about? What was your position (belief) about the topic. Give pertinent
details. Explain #2 in a paragraph or less. If you have changed your topic, explain it here.
My topic is about how climate change affects infrastructure. My position on this topic is that
climate change does affect infrastructure because sea levels have risen, wildfires have grown in
intensity, and the occurrence of landslides has increased. The effects of climate change pose a
threat to infrastructure. For example, the risk infrastructure along the shore depends on the rate of
sea level rising. The government will either need to relocate communities or invest in
infrastructure protection prior to rising sea levels. Relocate communities or invest in
infrastructure protection would cause billions of dollars to do so. Florida has already spent $100
million to protect the Florida Keys. Imagen how much it would cost, protecting infrastructure all
over the world along the shore. Another example of climate change poses a threat to
infrastructure is increasing of wildfire and landslide. In the United States, wildfires have occurred
five times more frequently since the 70s and 80s. Since 2011, each wildfire has cost one billion
dollars in damages. In Europe, the number of fatal landslides is increased about seven times since
1995. Frequent occurrences of wildfires and landslides would cost billions of dollars in damages.
All of the effect that pose a threat to infrastructure happen because of Climate change.
