Response to Article about water changes

I was really surprised by this article. There was so much new information, both good and bad, that I got out of it. It is pretty shocking how already one half of the ice caps thickness have melted. I am kind of worried and interested to follow in the coming months what the governments will do will the oil that was discovered. And maybe they are already taking advantage of it because as we see the gas prices have come down significantly in the past few weeks. I may research into if there is any relevant information on why the gas prices are lower in my next article, which can be a part of the land section. How the international economy is dealing with the sea trade is evidently fast pace, which just shows how competitive the market is and what changes people are making to cut their travel time in half. The air changes are effects of the water changes with the methane emission from the ice. It is very interesting to me how each part is a piece to another. This isn’t three separate problems but one large one that has a spiraling effecting in each main area. Each component will effect and be affected by one another and all three seem too big for scientists and people alike to handle; this is what I find so interesting.
