Article summary - Environmental Log

Sooooo, I'm supposed to summarize an article that I've just read :D

It's about arctic melting. Why is it such an issue?! Well, as y'all now that the arctic is melting! It's global warming people!!!! And that's bad because our fresh water comes from the arctic. As you can imagine, if the arctic is melting, then how on earth will we be able to get fresh water?! If you live in developed countries (like Canada) you'll be fine because you pretty much hold the source of water. But what about the developing countries (like Indonesia for example?!). How will countries like Indonesia survive? Can Indonesia keeps asking fresh water from Canada?!
Well, yes to some extend. Most of Canadian are generous, but the source of fresh water will decrease eventually. So then what?! Where we all get the fresh water after that?!

Then the article also talks about the habitat that might have been affected due to arctic melting. The polar bears live in the arctic, sooo if the arctic is melting, then where will they go?! What about their foods, how will they get their foods?!

The article also talks about that snow absorbs the sun. Sooo, if the snow is melting, then what will absorb solar light?! The solar light, will be reflected back to the space, and reflect back to the earth. That's how the earth gets warmer.
***I'm sorry guys if this sounds confusing. This is how my thought processes :D This is just to test me if I understand what I'm reading :/

Hmmm, what else did the article talk about?!

Well, the scientist predicted that the earth is warmer faster now than decades ago. This is a bad sign. Because if the earth is melting, then this results in arctic melting. If the arctic is melting, where will we get our fresh water?! If we don't drink water, then how will we survive?! If you're like me who drink water excessively, Oh noooo, what should we do?!!

Report:

By the way, my friend and I got 26/30 which is pretty good mark. Alhamdulillah ;)
