1. Greenland is Melting/Discovering Islands
caused by temperature rising (global warming theory) it went up 8 degrees farenheit in the last 10 years, 90 years from now the sea level will probably rise by 3 feet, moulin-hole in ice that water flows into getting under the glacier and causing it to move faster.
2. Polar Bears at Risk
Now on the endangered species list because of global warming; they aren't on it because of how many there are, like usual, but because of how many there are expected to be. In 2007, 1 million square miles of sea ice had melted.
3. The Carterets are Sinking
They're "sinking";3 reasons- 1. global warming causing sea level to rise, 2. global warming cause reefs to die, 3. the islands sit on an undersea volcano, so they might be sinking naturally. Thermal expansion- when water warms, it expands.
4. Lake Chad is Disappearing
Used to be the 6th largest lake in the world, now it has shrunk by 90% in the last 30 years. The main causes are overuse and climate change. possible solution- divert water from the Congo river so it flows into the lake.

Senator James Inhofe is a republican senator from Oklahoma who apposes global warming. IPCC-said with 90% certainty that people are causing global warming.
