The thesis of the film “Chasing Ice” is to portray the extreme climate change we are facing today. The film has a clear goal of showing visually the danger we are causing our planet by denying climate change. The aim of the film is to show us visually that climate change does exist and it is happening at a rapid rate. The film does a good job at providing evidence that climate change is happening, by capturing footage of the changes occurring over short periods of time. These videos captured by James Balog’s recording devices make it almost impossible to deny climate change and that is precisely the purpose of the film.

Her story revolves around her mother and she does a great job at making the reader laugh. She tells many stories and they usually involve outlandish things her mother had said to her growing up. One instance includes when Young is in the water and her mom is being the typical over the top mom constantly nagging her to be safe. Young was in the ocean swimming and her mom was warning her to be safe and exaggerated a bit: “The coral is poisonous! Get one shard in your toe and you’re going to have to chop it off -- the entire thing” (203). Of course there lies some truth to it but she exaggerates about her daughter getting hurt. On the same note as the swimming ordeal Young’s mother would constantly badger her with what could happen and it would always be an extreme. Her mother began by talking about what could happen in the water: “You’re going to get eaten by a tiger shark”(Young 203). Shark attacks can happen but Young’s mother exaggerates so that her daughter will be cautious. Her mother exaggerates over nothing but she uses it to her advantage when telling her story. She makes it funny to the reader and relatable so that the reader can enjoy what they are
