Vinnikov, Konstantin Y. & Rook A. (1999). Global warming and Northern Hemisphere Sea Ice Extent. Journal of Science, Vol. 286 Issue 5446, p1934. Retrieved from Computers & Applied Sciences Complete Data Base. This article talks about global warming and its severe impact on the ice levels near the south and especially north poles. It explains in detail the severe impact global warming has had on the ice bergs in the Antarctic by offering studies that has examines the receding lines of ice during the past 46 years. Also offers analyzes of why this is happening and explains the impact it will have on the Earths in the near future, wither it is bigger storms and hurricanes or stronger typhoons on eastern Asian countries and finally how all of this is related to the melting ice bergs in the south and north pole, how the melting ice caps are causing change on the global weather and it’s relation to other natural disasters in the future. Jones & Jenny (2010). NOAA Offers Extensive Proof of Global Warming. Civil Engineering (08857024); Vol. 80 Issue 9. Retrieved from Computers & Applied Sciences Complete Data Base. This article provides critical information and numerous evidences from the State of the Climate change in 2009 report of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) which indicated that their climate change studies which they have done over the past 20 years has been indicating in recent years that humidity, glaciers and ocean heat has all been in constant change from abnormal reasons other than nature. Suggestion that this may perhaps not be a natural cycle happening from nature and indeed from Human beings omitting an excessive amount of CO2 in the past 3-6 decades. Causing a 0.2 degree Fahrenheit raise since 1960 and raising sea levels by 0.125 inch per year since 1995. And if this continues and people and politician do not apply effecting policies to stop or reduce co2 emissions that this will cause further increases in global heat level causing drastic change of whether around the world hot places become hotter and cold places colder. This will result in changing in our atmosphere and cause unpredictable weather changes stronger from ever before. Donnelly, Jeffrey P.(2006). A Revised Late Holocene Sea-Level Record for Northern Massachusetts, USA. Journal of Coastal Research; Vol. 22 Issue 5. Retrieved from Computers & Applied Sciences Complete Data Base. This article talks about climate change in general and how there is a 1000 year cycle where the temperature of the earth either rises rapidly or decreases rapidly by natural causes, causing similar effects on global temperature like we see today. Given scientific evidences proving in the geological rocks found all around the world that the earth has gone through severe temperature changes through its history from natural cause’s non-human made. It indicates that we may be facing a similar cycle like the ones that happened in the past either. And human beings cannot impact the earth’s global temperature significantly enough to drastically cause climate change such as what we are seeing today. In the end the author indicates the human being probably can do nothing about it because this cycle does happen roughly every 100 years and rather arguing whither human are causing global warming we should infact study how to protect our self from this cycle and discover wither humans can survive it or not. Oguz, Ayse (2009). Will Global Warming Cause a Rise in Sea Level? A Simple Activity about the States of Water. Science Activities: Classroom Projects and Curriculum Ideas, v46 n1 p17-20. Retrieved from Academic Search Premier Data Base. In this article the author talks about global warming from one set of problem which is the principle of states water. By experimenting with three scientific methods: Archimeds principle, the law of conservation of matter, and the fluidity of liquids. The experiment helps readers and students seeking to test global warming effect by this method to further understand the methodology and reasons of how global warming is happening and the elements that affect it. By further understanding global warming and how it is happening the author believes further understanding of the nature of global warming and how the melting ice bergs at the north and south poles will help readers and maybe scientist estimate in the future how long it will take for us to notice a severe impact on global temperatures on earth and how will the ice melt and in which places will we see the most impacts. Finally the author by understanding all of these issues we can be better and properly prepared for any dangers around the worlds coastal areas and understand mother nature’s way in relegating the new streams of water that it will have. Leslie, Mitch (2003). Warming Up to a Frigid Sea. Science; Vol. 301 Issue 5632, p443. Retrieved from Computers & Applied Sciences Complete Data Base. In this article a large amount of data is offered by the U.S National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration from researchers studying the ecosystem and climate change and its effect of nature. It offers various measurement and data collected by scientist throughout 30 years of experimenting and measuring changes in our atmospheres temperatures and humidity levels. By examining the changes that has been happening around the world in particular the north and South Pole scientist have suggested that these drastic un-natural changes will impact Mother Nature and how it functions. Implying that sea levels will rise around the world most notably in coastal areas and islands and that we should expect more droughts around the world and fresh water becoming hard to find. Also that places near the north pole will be inhabitable for humen beings to lie in the future causing a large amount and shift in human population. Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society; May2008. Despite Rising Sea Levels, History Projects a Continual Fall. Vol. 89 Issue 5, p582-583, 2p. Retrieved from Computers & Applied Sciences Complete Data Base. In this article the author actually claims that sea levels around the world are actually falling despite claims that they are raising around the world. Based on a computer measurement looking at tectonic plate’s movement it indicates that sea level will fall by 120m in the next 80 million years. Also that the claims that sea levels are raising are also true but will not have that much of a significant impact because of the reverse effect that are also happening from the movement of tectonic plates. Test that have been taken by geologist and geophysicist indicate that these tectonic plates cause a change of water distribution around the world and the some sea levels are becoming deeper which will accommodate new levels of water. Finally the author indicates that maybe in the past these tectonic plates movement have also caused sea levels to raise and fall depending on where they are placed but it takes such a long time for it to happen and that we might not see such drastic changes. Chin, Gilbert (2004). All Rise. Science, Vol. 304 Issue 5679. Retrieved from Computers & Applied Sciences Complete Data Base. In this article the author emphasizes that one of the most devastating impacts global warming will have on the earth is the melting of the ice caps on the south and North Pole causing rising sea levels around the world. But also acknowledges that our measurement of how much sea level is rising is inaccurate because of our lack of sufficient technologies that can accurately measure this affect around the world. So far scientist have said that sea level are rising by 1.2 to 1.5 mm per year but tells his audience that our measurement methods are not 100% proven to be right and that there is room for error which he deeply believes in. And because of this error the author does believe in the rise of sea level but does not think it is sufficient enough to cause any damage at least in the near future. In the end the author does says that the scientific community should establish new and sufficient ways in measuring rising sea levels that has no room for error so that we as human being can be better prepared for it in the future and most importantly know when might we start seeing drastic changes in sea levels.

Journal of Coastal Research; Vol. 20 Issue 2. Retrieved from Computers & Applied Sciences Complete Data Base. This article acknowledges global warming and raising sea levels but doubts its impact on the future of earth and withers or not it will affect us deeply as human beings. Because humans are becoming smarter in absorbing and extracting energy from energy sources such as fossil fuels they are becoming more efficient, needing less energy and producing less co2 emotions in the earth. In the past 20 years human have created new methods in extracting oil which is cleaner and safer on the earth. Plus the author indicates that green energy is on the raise and in the future people will depend more on green energy than fossil fuels meaning a cleaner environment with less co2 emotions with less impact on global temperatures. Because of this the author believes that global warming will not be such an important issue in the future if humans continue in technological advancement in the green energy sector and finds new ways in supplying energy to out factories and cars that require almost no fossil fuels thus less temperature rises and no more sea level rising around the world. Doughman, Pamela M.1 (2007). California's Climate Change Policy: Raising the Bar. Retrieved from Computers & Applied Sciences Complete Data Base. This article gives an overview of the State of California policies in the past two decades on greenhouse emissions and how it relegates it and encourages and gives incentive for companies to invest in green energy. Making California the leading states in the world that does so, and lowering its co2 emission by a significant percentage in the last decade. It also talks about how the United States federal government has watched and studied how this experiment of regulating co2 emissions in the state of California and considering applying this around other states in America. Finally the author thinks the world should study and learn from this experiment that California has done to create a cleaner atmosphere and it has not affected business and investment and in fact helped in contributing in fixing the worlds problem with omitting too much green houses emissions. Church, John A. (2001). How Fast Are Sea Levels Rising?. Science, Vol. 294 Issue 5543. Retrieved from Computers & Applied Sciences Complete This article talks about how global warming is now affecting the earth more than ever before. No generation before us has contributed in global warming and affecting global temperatures like us. Because of our technological advancement and eagerness to grow and create more our contribution to co2 emissions has increased in last century 10 times comparing to the last 50 years. If we continue this we will destroy and poison the earth with harmful chemical waste such as the ones we omit from fossil fuels. Our greenhouse contribution has rising global temperatures around the world affecting weathers and causing climate change and damaging the earth in ways we would not imagine capable 20 years ago. The author ends with telling his audience that we must change our ways and start to imply new tactics in dealing with this issue so that we can hopefully reduce its impact and not change and damage the earth forever. Aung, Than ,Singh, Awnesh1,Prasad, & Uma (2009). Sea Level Threat ill Tuvalu. American Journal of Applied Sciences; 2009, Vol. 6 Issue 6. Retrieved from Computers & Applied Sciences Complete This article the author informs his readers that the sea level rising around the world is destroying costal lines all over the world such as in the Maldives, London Italy …etc. If this continues some costal countries will disappear within the next 100 years. Some areas such as in the Maldives have already suffered significant damages from rising sea levels that tides from hurricanes have drowned some islands forever within the country itself. The author tells of cities such as London that has built sea walls that halts and stops high waves from impacting the city by bringing in sea water but says that these walls will not last forever and are only a temporary solution because the sea levels are in continues rise. The author ends by saying that we need to find an effecting solution other than the ones we have now on rising sea levels and how to manage them and stop them from destroying our cities near costal lines. And tackling the real problem which is global warming.
