Scientists Reveal More Evidence of Western Warming in Antarctica

Who: Kenneth Chang, Robert Bindschadler, along with many other scientists.

What: For the past year now, scientists across the world have stated in researches that Antarctica is finally cooling down, after fifty years of suffering from global warming. However, scientists Kenneth Chang, Robert Bindschadler, and others, believe that Antartica continues to warm. This theory is the result of researching the temperatures of the past half a century in the most southern region of the world. The section that the scientists believe is warming the most and the fastest, is the section that stretches towards South America. The overall research, will enormously help in the process of finally solving the climate crisis in Antarctica.

Where: The research took place mainly in the continent of Antarctica.

When:The research has been taking place for quite a few years now, and is an on going process.

Why: The scientists believe that in order to solve the entire global warming crisis, we must start with the place that suffers from it the very most, which happens to be Antarctica. In addition, this research will eventually play a huge part in getting our world one step closer when all creatures can live happily and peacefully without their environment being abolished.

My Opinion: I think the research that the scientists are conducting, will be extremely beneficial to the overall well being of our earth. In addition, knowing this new piece of information, will let us be aware of the crisis and help us solve it, instead of thinking wistfully that the warming has stopped.

Barack Obama Along With America Make History At Inauguration

A mindblowing, 1.5 million people gathered at the National Mall in Washington D.C., on Tuesday afternoon to witness something that would forever leave an impact on the United States of America and the world. Though not everyone was able to be there in Washington D.C., billions of people surrounding the globe, were glued to the television, watching in awe as the first African American was to be sworn in as the president of America.
"Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real," Obama stated in his inaugural address. "They are serious, and there are many. They will not be met easily or in a short amount of time. But know this America; they will be met."
Although the president's optimism may have wavered a bit during the speech, that certainly didn't stop the uproar of celebration from the beavy of fans. In confident tones that uplifted the audience and beyond, he assured America that with hardwork and unity we can overcome our serious economic and international challenges.
For eight extraordinarily long years, the people of America have been dissapointed and angered by the same raging war, the failing economic policies, and health care that more than half of the country couldn't afford. However for once, they were inspired by this one man, the son of a Kenyan immigrant and a white woman from Kansas, ended in success, the once inconceivable journey. Beyond the still present racism in America, it electrifried people that for once America could come over the belief that only a white man could reach the highest peak in American politics.
"It's obviously historic because President Obama is the first African-American president, but it's more than that.," former president Bill Clinton stated. "This is a time when we're clearly making a new beginning. It's a country of repeated second-changes and new beginnings."
