    I did not know how bad climate change was in Arizona, that is so sad to hear. Very eye opening, I'm glad the site discussed the repercussions that could follow. This site does a good job expressing the urgency of the change that needs to happen to fight the detrimental effects of climate change.
  •  
    This is unfortunate news for us who live in Arizona. I took a look at the site and read in further detail about how much of these things, that are in our daily lives, taken for granted. Spreading the message about this urgent issue is crucial for any type of substantial change to occur. I appreciate this site providing in depth analysis about the issue at hand. Hopefully more people will take this social issue more serious and help make a positive advancement to the cause.
  •  
    The climate costs is already a strain on Arizonans, the heat is very much devastating, and nobody wants to stay outside in the sun for too long. The website expresses the message that there needs to be something done to resist and fight back against climate change.
  •  
    The tone of the article is urgent and presents a fear in the reader by the emboldening of death tolls and seems to be biased. It does come from an organization based on environmental change, however the article does not instruct or offer resources to enact change for the better. Was the point of the article to inform readers with the intention of causing fear or was it to get the reader to look further into their organization.

    Climate Change is a huge issue and really needs to be resolved. We're fighting for the policies and we need to realize the impacts and be more sustainable, corporate, and save the planet. We only have one.

    Climate change is bigger than us, and very few realize that. We need to take action in order to save the earth! Climate change is affecting countries all over.
  •  
    I agree that climate change is a severe issue in today's world. Methods on reduction of contamination such as carbon dioxide and methane being released into our environment need to be enforced since pollutants like these play a huge factor in climate change.
  •  
    Human activity, especially greenhouse gas emissions, is considered the dominant cause of temperature increases.

Should climate change be added to the civil rights agenda? - 1 views

  •  
    The author of this piece suggests that we should view environmental issues such as climate change as another type of civil rights movement. She parallels events like Hurricane Katrina to inequalities that African-Americans still face today.
  •  
    This article proposes a great question. Climate change over time has caused many more natural disasters just like Hurricane Katrina; the latest example being given Hurricane Harvey. I feel like people are slowly starting to realize the problem at large.

  •  
    Climate change is a pressing matter that many individuals downplay the severity of. Greenland's melting glaciers are having a major impact on the rise of sea level that is plaguing the Earth. Understanding why they are melting, will help prepare for the rise in sea level.

    I agree that many people downplay the severity of environmental matters like this one. Something has to be done about climate change immediately.
  •  
    I agree with this article and how it shows humanity has been messing up the ice sheets for awhile now. Also very interesting to learn that the ice sheet could recover itself in a short time but we continue to "warm" the water.
  •  
    Not just Greenland, though Greenland is certainly the most apparent in proximity to Earth. While yes, humanity is rushing the process, the Earth naturally goes through the heating and cooling patterns that cause the ocean to rise and fall and glaciers to retreat and refreeze.

The Great Barrier Reef is dying - The Washington Post - 1 views

  •  
    This summary discusses the killing of the Great Barrier Reef at the hand of humans. Temperature increases are introducing coral reefs to disease and death from lack of algae. The Trump administration has cut funds severely to the Environmental Protection Agency and the Natural Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Talk of the U.S being withdrawn from the Paris climate deal have been discussed as well.
  •  
    If the United States decides to pull out of the Paris climate deal, I believe that we will be to blame for the state our planet is in. Our country is driven by consumerism, causing mothers to follow in our footsteps. If we can step in the right direction toward a clean, green society, we can then start to tackle climate change.
