Melting Ice Caps The Arctic is global warming’s canary in the coal mine. It is a highly sensitive area which is profoundly affected by the changing climate. The average temperature in the Arctic is rising twice as fast as elsewhere in the world (nrdc.org). Because of this, the ice cap is getting thinner, melting away, and rupturing. Here is an example of this; the largest ice block in the Arctic, the Ward Hunt Ice Shelf, had been around for 3000 years before it started cracking in 2000 (nrdc
The melting of polar ice caps can be prevented. This is a serious issue. Polar ice caps melting will cause the earth to warm rapidly, because the UV light will not have anything to reflect off of and bounce back to space. Along with global warming, and the melting polar ice caps, the earth will be warmed sufficiently by 2036 if the burning of fossil fuels is not stopped, or even slowed by a small percentage. Polar ice caps are solid land masses with ice covering the whole land mass. The land mass
(Gardiner) The melting of the polar ice caps affects the whole world. Coastal lands, agriculture, weak permafrost, increase in disease, weather patterns, ocean circulation, and biodiversity are few elements affected by this emergency. There is major concern for coastal flooding. IPCC estimates

Types of Head Gear Implemented/ Effectiveness Within the game of baseball, only select players are required to wear headgear. These include batters and back catchers. The proposal for new pitching caps will be explored within the next section, while the effectiveness of batting helmets and catcher helmets/masks is the focal point of this section. We will begin with a brief overview of the rationale of the helmet. Helmets are ultimately designed to lessen the energy resulting from a massive impact
Introduction It is being known that clothes make a man or a woman and by all means, this is a true statement regarding the United States military. Soldier’s uniforms symbolize everything from branch, rank, position, loyalty, and prestigious. The image of a sharp outfit creates a psychological, moral booster and spirit de corps of Soldiers. As a general rule, Soldiers are identified by their uniforms. Each uniform has multiple components that have a legacy and a history behind. Although Soldiers

The implications of this decision would have been obvious had they been considered during the Problem Solving Process.
