         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>POLE WEAR.</strong></div><div><br></div><div>INTRODUCTION.</div><div>The intention of this report is to talk about an environmental problem named “Pole Wear”. This problem started about 30 years ago in the Artic and Antartic. It is produced by the global warming, and the ice disappears with the time. Currently&nbsp; the Poles has lost 28.000 million tons (65%).</div><div><br></div><div>CONSEQUENCES.</div><div>In first place, an a consequence of the Pole wear, sea level is rising very fast. Too, animals like Pole bears or Penguins are endangered. Other animals, such us the artic fox is extinct.</div><div><br></div><div>EXPERTS OPINIONS.&nbsp;</div><div>Experts think that we would have stoped this problem years ago if we had saved energy. Their advice is to change fossil fuels for clean energy. My point of view is that if we do not reduce global warming, the Artic and Antartic poles will dissapear.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>
