Some say that newspaper articles are not that credible. Unlike other media such as television news, magazines, and radio broadcasting that includes mostly facts, newspaper editiors include a lot of their own viewpoints on a certain matter. They are entitled to criticize or abhor one person or an event that makes the public or readers consider the newspaper articles as a whole as very biase and subjective. However, I personally like reading newspaper article because it is subjective. Reading about someone else's idea and values makes me think for second time towards one thing. It helps me broaden my view and understanding of the world.
This article is mainly discussing the urgency of our environment due to the melting of glacier that adds predominant pressure on global warming. Data shows that the Arctic sea ice may reach its lowest level on record this summer and that the governments need to take immediately action to speed up for new climate pact. This catastrophe could lead to endanger the polar wildlife and accelerate global warming. Some environmentalists and scientists are concerned of just how much warmer the temperatures has become and how dramatically it would change the climate of polar frontier. This article states that a lot of groups want governments of different countries to talk over this problem and quickly.
The article was relatively short compared to the other ones I read. This article lacks details. I believe that the editor could have talked more about some numbers of problems that could emerge if the matter is not handled soon or he could have suggessed some numbers of the thickness of the melting arctic so that the readers can really envision and see better stimulation of this event. However, this article was not biase, it mostly provided facts.
