Summary
At a Farm Show in Pennsylvania, they showed the modern day technology and methods in Today's Agriculture Exhibit. In this exhibit, a lot of information is given about farms. In particular, it focuses on dairy, beef, veil, corn, and soybeans, ect. It features extended crops and farming equipment displays. Not only this, but they showcased the truth and facts of modern agricultural production.
Reaction
I find this interesting to know that a group of different people get together (farmers, bureaucrats, and media) to solve a problem and address issues. This is good news because it is a start of a revolution to fix things with a wide group of people. It makes issues easier to overcome and problems easier to fix. This is the future of agriculture.
Summary
Over this Christmas break researchers discovered that the West Antarctic Ice Sheet is warming 3 times the global average. Some even think that the ice warming faster is a good thing because it will help the mining industry. The article states that if we factor out global warming and the melting of polar ice mining is still not allowed at the Southern pole. There was a treaty signed by 50 countries called the Antarctic Treaty that protects that the land from military use and taking exploitation of it resources and minerals. Besides that treaty they would also have to deal with the extreme weather. They would have to deal with horrible winds that have the strength of hurricanes, the large icebergs, and would have to drill through the mantle of earth.

I do not agree with some of the statements in this article. I don't understand why some people would believe it is okay for the polar ice to melt just so we may mine because we are destroying habitats. I think that mining just so we can have more resources is not worth destroying the homes of some animals. I think people need to think of other ways to mine rather than the south pole.
