    1. Little guys are going to be hurt and the big taken out by the loss of Arctic ice.
      The time for change was like yesterday and lag time is written in stone..
      Still how people treat each other in times of need is an even greater test of the advancement of civilization of mankind on Earth.. Even if no real effort to head off extinction or to save the beauty of Nature on E..
      I can't believe this is true.. We either pick pull the sword from the stone and wage war to keep Earth alive and protect the little guys all or we fail in our mission and purpose of life.. To show kindness; to quest for Justice and as a song once said To walk humbly with our God..

The Media Matters blog added on August 17 that "not one of the major broadcast (ABC, CBS, NBC), cable (CNN, Fox News, MSNBC) or print (Associated Press, New York Times, Washington Post, USA Today, Los Angeles Times, Wall Street Journal) outlets have covered the report".
