An Inconvient Truth

Riches await as earth’s icy north melts

Summary:

The global warming is the first enemy for the planet these days. The global warming happens because the gases keep the sun’s heat inside the atmosphere which increases the temperature in the planet. The North Pole will be affected from the heat because the scientists thought that the ice will melt in the North Pole after 100 years but with the global warming problem it will melt in 10 –15 years from now. An international race for oil, fish, and shipping routes is happening now because a lot of valuable resources are inside this place which makes it very important. The U.S Geological Survey estimates that it has as much as 25 percent of the world’s undiscovered oil and gas. Shipping routes are the most important thing in this subject because if this ice melts that mean nothing will be there except water so many problems will be solved because it will save a lot of time and money. Canada, Russia, Denmark, and Norway are seeking to claim waters all the way up to the North Pole because as I said a lot of valuable resources are in that place and everybody wants it of course.

Main idea:

The ice in the North Pole is melting because of the global warming, and the countries near the pole are trying to get something from it, especially to get the oil which is there.

Opinion:

I saw a lot of articles about the global warming effects but this one is the most important one to me because it is about money and how the countries in the north are fighting for it. I know it’s very dangerous and we will lose many important things but if we will get money from it so it’s worth it.

The Global Warming Movie

This movie showed everything about the global warming in a simple way and easy to understand, and I think that the way of the program was very interesting because it was like a funny show. All the statistics were given with facts specially the pictures which show the before and after for the different places. Many interesting points were shown such as:

1 - A lot of animals will disappeare if the temperature increases such as the polar bear.

2 - The water level in the seas will increase which will cover a lot of lands such as north India, and some states in the USA.

3 - Many disasters happened in the last 5 years and the hurricane Katrina was the most powerful one.


As I said the way of showing the points was very interesting because you don’t feel bored while watching because there were jokes which keep you want to keep watching.

An Intoduction to Global Warming

Global warming is the increasing in the earth temperature from the enormous number of gases which the humans release every day from the machines. These gases stay inside the earth’s atmosphere which increases the earth’s temperature, and affects everything on the earth. Solving this problem is not impossible but it will take a long time if we keep ignoring it. Everything we use in our life these days could contribute to the global warming such as cars, planes, and the factories’ smoke. We still have time to handle this problem, or we will lose the most important things in our life. Our food, including the animals and the vegetables, will die because the temperature is very high, and the most important thing for our body which is the water will evaporate from the oceans. Even the humans are affected by the heat and a lot of people died in Europe last year, for example in France, and Italy.
