Is Global Warming real?

No Fishing???!!!

Parts of the Arctic Ocean have been closed to fishers because of an enormous climate change that has the president of Oceana worried about the water temperature. This is the first time the US has restricted fishing for anything other than over fishing. Does this say anything about how we are treating our world?

I think that while it's a bad sign to be closing the fishing, it's good that the US is taking steps to try and help the whole global warming proccess. For all those who aren't sure if global warming exists, this should be some evidence. The water in the Arctic is getting warmer, ice is melting. and not just becasue of this awesome warm weather we experienced yesterday nd today. For all we know this could be part of the world's cycle. Ice age, warm weather, global warming, ice age... all I know is that it is actually happening, whether or not its part of the cycle or if humans are helping it along. And the rant is over.

Until next time...
