Polar bears are drowning because of global warming.

Source#1: http://online.wsj.com/public/article_print/SB113452435089621905-vnekw47PQGtDyf3iv5XEN71_o5I_20061214.html
a. Jim Carlton. Richard Steiner.
b. He is a staff reporter of The Wall Street Journal. Richard Steiner is a marine biologist.
c. The source is very credible.
d. The source is saying that the ice in the arctic is melting because of climate change. It's saying that the polar bears have no place to rest because there is either no ice left for them to rest on, it's not thick enough, or it's too small.
e. Yes i do believe the source.
f. I believe the source because the journalist got information from people who know a lot about what's going on in the arctic. He got information from people who research and study things like this. All the sources who got information from have background information on why this is happening to the polar bears, they're not just saying it.

Source#2: http://www.bearplanet.org/global-warming-polar-bears.shtml
a. Bear Planet Team.
b. Unknown. It's not stated. They're just authors.
c. Not very.
d. The source is saying that the polar beras cannot survive in the arctic because of the climate. It says that the polar bears are being added to the endangered species list. They're saying that at any time the ice can just melt away.
e. Yes and No.
f. No because the source is not credible enough to prove to me that it's true. But, since what I read in the last source and in this source are somewhat in common I believe that some of this sources information is correct.

Source#3: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-433170/Global-warming-sees-polar-bears-stranded-melting-ice.html
a. Bill Mouland.
b. He's an author of mailonline.
c. No.
d. That the polar bears are stranded on melting ice.
e. No.
f. I don't believe the source because the people he got information didn't exactly study or research this topic. It was mostly just people that worked within the experience with trying to save animals.
