Lily Monday Greenland ice
The New York Times published an article concerning the warming earth and how Greenlands ice cap has melted substantially in the past five years. Losing about two cubic miles of ice per year, enough to cover Maryland. The president neglects to take any action regarding climate change, even though if this cap melts all the seas will rise and the earth will be in bad trouble. This reminds me of when The Dust Bowl is very similar in that no leaders took action to solve the problem and many people substantially lost jobs, money and food because of it. We could be looking at a natural emergency if someone doesn't take action soon.
