Bias article: Climate Change is a Hoax

The article I chose was called Top Ten Reasons Climate Change is a Hoax. Without even reading the article, I could tell that this writing was going to be very biased based on the title. The article, written by Elmer Beauregard, states that studies showed 2014 was supposed to be the hottest year yet. Beauregard talks about “record ice,” “record snow,” and “record cold,” but backs up the topics with his personal thoughts or his own opinion. If he had provided actual proof to back his topics up, the article wouldn’t be so biased, but he has nothing and that makes his case weak. Beauregard’s biased comments negatively affect the information provided by presenting inaccurate statements on the topic of climate change.

    I agree that the lack of proof in the article makes it appear less convincing because all that's being provided is the authors opinion. If there was some sort of evidence used, this might be a more persuasive article.

Dual-fuel vehicles

A recent study shows that dual- fuel vehicles are benefiting the population but, turns out they are costing the environment. While substituting gasoline for ethanol gases, it causes an increase of ultra fine particle matter, with a 30% increase of atmospheric concentration. The problem is that they are less then 50 nanometers in diameter. The nano particles are also not track or regulated by the environmental agencies. We inhale these gases everyday, inhaling ethanol. The most practical way to reduce greenhouse gases is using electric, hybrid and biofuel care.   https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828124546.htm

Acid Zone in Chesapeake Bay Found

     According to the University of Delaware, the Chesapeake Bay is becoming acidic as it has gone to 7.4 pH from an average of 8.2. The oxidation of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide may be the factor that is leading to the higher acidity levels in coastal oceans, but it can eventually lead to more of open oceans. Naturally the waters of the Chesapeake Bay have a regulatory system that holds back the increase of acidity levels in the area, and this works as the dissolving of living shells, non-living aragonite, and calcite minerals. Though nature has a path to keep the waters in the Chesapeake Bay, humans should take more care of our Earth as we have a role in polluting the water and rising the acidity levels in coastal oceans. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828093737.htm
