Today, in class, we were inable to get on the computers, so we just sat around as Bruns set up this one video thing, which led to the conversation "Did Mr. Bruns plaigarize Anderson-Cooper 360 (As in Mr. Bruns 360)??" We'll see. But others thought Anderson Cooper might've copied off the X-box 360, which is highly unlikely in my opinion.The video was kinda boring, no offense to Bruns and the creators, but I had a tough time staying awake.It covered a wide variety of topics, but it narrowed down the thesis of climate change. It mentioned how Greenland is 80 percent ice, and it has increased 8 degrees over the past ten years. Also, these trench type things called mulans(sp?) form when the ice melts and water rushes over it. I recall the two guys repeling down the wall, and one of 'em even dropping the 'f' bomb.Later, it was about these islands near Papa New Guinea or something, where the land is sinking, and they can pretty much no longer grow their own crops. They have been relocated multiple times supposedly, and after their government-supplied food (which only gets sent two times a year), they are forced to live on fish and coconuts, and even go a few days with out food on some occasions.
