Kirras information Report

Do you know Antarctica? The driest, highest, coldest and windiest continent on earth. Antarctica has the lowest temperatures ever –129.

There are all different temperatures everyday but the average temperatures is –49. In Antarctica it is constantly daylight in summer for seval weeks. In winter it is constantly darkness for sevarl weeks. The warmest temperature ever is –49.

If you wear clothes you are wearing right now everyday at Antarctica you will freeze. It’s cold because when the ice melts the cold air goes in the sky and then we feel it on our bodies. The highest wind sped ever in Antarctica is 5 metres per second.

The icebergs in Antarctica melt by global warming. Icebergs are blocks of water that have fallen off glaciers and have formed into icebergs. Icebergs are very dangerous for ships because the ship will beak because they are so strong.

The colours of icebergs are pink, green, white and blue. Some icebergs live on land and a lot live in water. Big icebergs are over 1 million tons. Icebergs are the 2nd biggest ice in Antarctica the biggest is a glacier.

The ice in Antarctica shrink by 13%. The ice melts and then refreezes. There are no plants on top of the ice. There is one plant that lives under the snow and the plant is phytoplankton. Antarctica is a desert because it receives very little rain.

You can visit Antarctica but it will very cold. Antarctica will be too cold for you and your family you can freeze. So your home is the best place for you and you family.
