Bell Buster: What kinds of climatic and natural landforms act as tourist attractions?

Main Ideas:
- Much of Europe has a relatively mild climate because of ocean currents and warm winds.
-Eastern Europe has a harsher climate because it is farther from the Atlantic Ocean.
-The Dutch and the Venetians altered lands to fit their needs by constructing polders and canals.
- Uncontrolled logging and acid rain destroy forests.

Vocabulary: North Atlantic Drift, sirocco, mistral, dike, polder, seaworks, terpen, Zuider Zee, ljsselmeer
