"Climate Change; U.N. Says 2012 to be Among the Warmest on Record" -Alex Delmar-Morgan
United Nations reports that 2012 is set to be the warmest year recorded in history. More alarming is a study found that an area the size of India has melted in excess of the average yearly ice melt from 1979-Present. This means that when you analyze the average amount of ice that melts a year, this year an area the size of India melted in excess of the average.....seems pretty substantial, wandering why the article is only 3 sentences long (they are rather long compound sentences, but still).

Page A3 is solely devoted to an article entitles "Polar Ice Melt Is Accelerating"
Highlights of the article:
-Greenland ice is melting 5 times fast than it was in the mid-1990's
-NASA and the European Equivalent have researched the situation and determined there is no immediate threat or certainty that melt is a product of man-made warming.
