Hot Topic
Global warning is a very hot topic. It is talked about at political dinners and dinner tables around the world. Scientist have been discussing this topic for years. In answering question 9, section a, I do not believe that if the polar ice caps melted it would cause water levels to increase to a flood stage. I believe that if this horrible situation occurs, the earth would be forever different in many ways. I do have many concerns and questions about this experiment. If the polar ice caps did melt, how would this effect the ocean life that we know today? If the ice caps are fresh water and melt into salt water how would this change the water's balance. Would the migration of our sea life change? I am sure that the ice caps melting would effect all of us in some way.

Hi Jennifer, I had the same sorts of questions about the melting as it would affect the ocean. Seriously, how would this all work out. I have so many friends who doubt global warming, that I avoid talking about it to them. The are very conservative people (I live in New England) and do not want to believe such a thing is happening. As far as sea life changes, I do know that krill are the basis for a great deal of life support and their population is dwindling but this is due more to overfishing. It seems krill oil is even better than fish oil to slow aging. Of course people do anything to be young.
