The reason and the side effects of Arctic ice disappearance
The current climate change is mainly caused by certain gases in the atmosphere, notably carbon dioxide. These gases let heat from sunlight, but block its radiation back into space. And that traps heat in the air. more carbon dioxide equals more warming. And there’re more small factors that affect climate change.
Those who doubt the power of human beings to change Earth’s climate should look to the Arctic. The progress is easily visible in the shrinkage of the ice that covers the Arctic ocean. In the past 30 years, the minimum coverage of ice has fallen by half. On current speed, the Artic ocean will be out of ice in 2040.
Some might welcome ice-free Arctic ocean. Because they can get advantages from it such as shortcut for shipping between the Pacific coast of Asia and the Atlantic coasts of Europe and the Americas. But the right response should be fear.
A warming Arctic could have bad effects. The winds around world are affected by the temperature difference between the poles and the tropics. If climate of Artic goes up, the difference will decrease and wind speed will be slow downed. Less wind might sound desirable. It is not. It would spell blizzards and heatwaves in unexpected places at unexpected times.
The scariest possibility is that sea level rising by the melting of ice cap covering Greenland. If ice cap covering Greenland is melted sea levels could rise by a lot more than today’s projection of 74cm by the end of the century.
The hard truth is that the Arctic as it is known today is almost certainly gone. Even if we try to reduce emission of carbon dioxide, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is too much to stop global warming. Humans cannot simply undo climate change. We will have to adapt to it.
Commonly, left wing groups are saying that climate change is due to humans’ usage of carbon dioxide. On the other hand, right wing groups are saying that climate change is natural phenomenon.
Right wing groups has been claiming that climate change is not caused by human. And they have been saying that the global warming theory is made to restrict industry. But even very right wing media, washington times, wrote articles about exposing climate data manipulation. It was hard to find articles that claiming climate change is natural. And even though I found it, it didn't have enough evidence.
Left wing groups claim that climate change is led by human. And they say right wing groups try to avoid their responsibility and they try to conceal the facts of climate change cause. They showed many evidences of global warming.
Here’s the summary of a economist article (left wing) , and you can see the details on attached website address below.

변상렬(Sam) 201233692 This was issued in Jan 06, 2017
Professor claimed University Forced Him To Teach Math Because ‘Asians Are Good At Math’. Lawsuit claimed the political science head at the University of Illinois at Chicago also told him “Koreans are stubborn and don’t understand American culture.” A Korean-American professor filed a lawsuit against the University of Illinois at Chicago, claiming that officials in his department “systematically harassed” him because of his ethnicity and forced him to teach a math class because he was Asian.
Seung-Whan Choi, a professor of international relations, says that UIC’s political science department denied him fair raises, treated him unfairly and forced him to teach classes that he wasn’t qualified to teach.
He said, “They don’t like Korean-Americans,” Choi, a retired Army officer who was born in South Korea, told The Chicago Tribune. “I’m supposed to be very submissive to the department head, who is white-American.”
Choi believes that some of the mistreatment stems from his decision to file a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in 2010, after he was fired for an undisclosed reason. As a result of Choi’s 2010 complaint, the university settled with the professor through a mediator and reinstated Choi with a promotion in 2011.
Do you this kind of issue as a racism? yes I do. Still those kind of prejudice ,unfair treatments and political within department happens among America nation. What i want to share is that we students, have to break the fantasm of America that there would be no discriminations. There are no perfect conditions even in America. I wanted to make it clear for whom are about to go America.
황지용(G) 201233080 I couldn't find more articles of this news. but on chicago tribune & NBC news (asian amrican section). They have some words from 2015 then-department head Dennis Judd which means nothing but Nationality discrimination.
"knows that many Koreans are stubborn and do not understand American culture of compromise when dealing with their boss." ,"as a foreigner, has to keep in mind who he is dealing with and what he is wishing for,"
If there is conflict, I think we have to listen both sides opinion.As far as I search, I couldn't find any university's official statement that thir faculty speaking. So I believe it is hard to agree choi's statement, before checking fact.
윤준희 2013131531 I think that there should be more investigation about this event because it could be one side of opinion. In addition, if the professor was heard by word by word, then there could be misunderstanding too because many of stories that heard by mouth to mouth are being changed by their emotion
I read article on Chosun newspaper about the negative effect of new president’s pledge. The pledge is about supervising Chaebol company occupation opportunity trend. The article points out that this pledge might lead to another a back-scratching alliance of government and business. This is because they think if the president controls Chaebol companies, then Chaebol companies would follow the president’s order and it means the president interfere in Chaebol companies management. In addition, the article said in capitalism, the government should not control the companies. The article concludes Moon jae in’s pledge negatively and advocate Chaebol’s companies position. They also think it’s pledge leads to a back-scratching alliance of government and business. On the left side of Hankearae newspaper, with the same news title, it doesn’t mention about negative opinion. Chosun newspaper is very right side of newspaper. So I believe the article is quite biased. In addition, the comment on the Chosun newspaper article, the article is showing supposition which is way too far. A back-scratching alliance of governemt and business means when the government officer receives bribes from the company but this pledge is about realizing the Chaebol company’s occupation opportunity trend. It doesn’t involve the undercover cooperation with government and Chaebol companies. In addition, I think in some ways the government should restrict Chaebol company because Chaebol is very powerful and they can influence small companies violently if they are not restricted by government.

According to Internet news of Nocut, Media pen, Digital MEdia(Econimic). Nocut news has no negative comment with. but on Media pen & Digital Media they have comment which worries that new policy can prejudice Autonomy of the enterprise.
As we all know, Chosun, Chungang and Donga are close to the conservative party. Hankyoreh has progressive tendency. Following their tendency, their perspectives are pretty much different on the same news.
박범준 Newt (201333002) I also think that the government should raise small company. However, large corporations have many partners. If the government regulates large corporations, then the small businesses that are under them are also hitting.
But still small company needs investment.Then where the investment comes from. If we touches chaebol company with too much regulations, it will not only harm to our economic situation, but also endanger the small company.
윤준희(eugeney yoon) 201331531 you guys' comment made more evident that on the same topic, newspapers tells the story with different perspective and point of view depending on their political side.
I agree with Miso's idea. BBC advocates overbooking system but it is actually their fault to measure wrongly consumer demand.They should have not done overbooking or measured accurately. And if they are clear about the random draw, they should open to public and remove the rumor
I read articles which reports about the United airline incident. In South Korea, It has become a issue about racism. As a Korean, I couldn't agree more that It happened becasue of racism.
This is what korean artikel (Dong-A newspaper) said : There were 4 picked up passengers who were meant to be out, But 3 of them were Asian. When koreans first read this articls, They were very mad about this incident. no one ever thought the other way.
But, Foreign Broadcast systems, such as BBC, is describing this incident like this : Overbooking on flights happens all the time. And when there's and overbooking issue, they opfer an inducemnet to the passengers to take a later flight. Proper amount of money and a hotel room for the night is offered. When no one takes the offer, the amount of money goes up.
In this case, no one took the offer. So a manager boarded the flight and informed passengers that four people would be selected to leave the aeroplane. That selection was based on several factors, but frequent fliers and higher fare paying passengers were given priority to stay.
A couple who were selected agreed to leave the plane voluntarily. A third passenger, reportedly the wife of the man who was forcibly removed, also agreed. The man, who said he was a doctor and had to see patients in the morning, refused.
So, what we need to focus and read carefully is the different perspecive between BBC and Korean Dong-A newspaper. BBC clearly says that crews of United Airline did not picked four people by racism. They show the evidence by talking about standard guideline of overbooking issues. But Korean Dong-A newspaper, They have nuance of distrust, distrusting what United airline says.
This was such a good example that shows perspectives can be so diffrent like this on one incident, according to whom speaks about it.
I think the United airline incident's racism controversy is poped up because of thier prior behavior. They had done so many rasicm discrimination. You can see details here_> http://www.ytn.co.kr/_ln/0104_201704111413455681. It is not baseless opinion. As long as I know the United airline didn't showed the clear evidence of how random select was chosen. What was the evidence?
I also agree with Jason2's opinion. When Korean people first saw the news, they were upset and had supposition of this incident could be related to racism. However, when they saw the news about what United airlines have done , they got conviction of that was actually a racism and got mad about this incident. Also what you said was that they gave the standard guidelines but we couldn't see that guidelines anywhere.
Umm, I think their is no revealing evidence about how does the 4 people are selected. We knows that overbooked people with disabilities and unaccompanied minors should be the last to be kicked off, according to the company's carriage contract and also will also consider "severe hardships". However It doesn't mean there is racism. Still we don't know the exact reason why they choose one by one by option role.
As many of you might assume, these American airlines really do some insane things as reported recently. About this incident, in my opinion, I think they(the airlines) have done nothing great about it, but still, I do not really consider it as racists' one. It's that violence they have done but the people whom they have "attack"ed.
If there were more Asians than any other race, it could be happened stochastically. But, I don't think it would have been. They need to open to the public how they chose people randomly and passengers race so that people can understand. It made people suppose that United airline did racism even though they didn't do it or meant it.
송주섭 Jason1 201332695 I think United Airline issue has nothing to do with racism based on two different perspectives of these medias. Donga reported it is realted to racism just beacuse 3 out of 4 passengers who were meant to be out were asians. That can happen. Donga just reported it is a racism because they wanted it be an issue in Korea. However, BBC reports based on policy of United Airline and exact progress of the issue. I have to say BBC's report is way more trustworty that that of Donga.
우정하(jenna) 201433353 I also saw an explanation through the article that United Airlines picked passengers at random. For the airline, not all passengers are equal. And the class of passengers is divided by how much you bought your ticket and how often you fly. It is for this reason that some experts are suspicious that the recent controversial United Airlines mandate has been randomly selected. (http://ilyo.co.kr/?ac=article_view&entry_id=242404#close_kova)
I think It is a matter made by capitalism. First of all, ethical things should be given priority. I can not understand that kind of behavior. I think many people will have the same idea as me. Right?
These days, we can see some news about the impeachment of US president Donald Trump. Since US is the most powerful and influential country in the world, all countries are observing US's behavior closely. In Korea, there are several different sights about this 'Trump Risk' whether it is going to affect Korea seriously or not. First, Dong-A newspaper said that this incident will affect Korea negatively. They emphasized especially the steel and electronics companies might be more influenced critically than other parts. To defend their opinion, they suggested the examples of Trump's two policies which were 'Protective trade' and 'Isolation'. Actually Trump warned Toyota (Japan's automobile company) to build a factory in America or Japan should bear huge amount of border taxes. The reason why Dong-A gave this example is that Korean companies like KIA automobile, Samsung electronics, LG electronics and Hyundai Mobis also have their factories in Mexico not in America. Since Donald Trump claimed to withdraw from Trans-Pacific Partnership and renegotiate North American Free Trade Agreement before becoming a president. So Korean companies who have their factory in Mexico are keep tracking this problem. However, CBS network did not take this problem seriously. They invited the economist Seong to ask opinions. The economist Seong focused on Trump's position rahter than his policies. What he claimed was the effect coming from his policies might not be that serious or effective in practice but, the uncertainty of his future position can cause more problems potentially. He said it takes a lot of time that a policy to be fulfilled in practice and in the situation of whether Trump is going be impeached or not, it will be much harder. I also agree that uncertainty of Donald Trump's position makes world more confused and until this problem ends, nobody knows what influences or results it might cause to other countries.
Trump professed to make the United States again great, and as a result he was elected president. Should US President Trump take care of Korean and Japanese economy? If factories enter the United States, America's economy will certainly improve. I do not think Trump is wrong in the view of the president of the United States.
An FTA is an agreement that both of the subjects(US and another) signed on the same paper. Everyone knows that it's what "Trump" did not do, but there should be some kind of responsibility at least. I'm not sure why he can say like that(FTA can be renegotiated), but I'm feeling that it's not a right thing if he's just saying like that.
Trump is expected to make good negotiations with Korea on the US side. I hope that negotiations with the United States will make a deal that does not involve much damage to Korea.
After the French Revolution there have been the Left and the Right. These two parties have greatly influenced society and its individuals including the media. Between these two wings we have the Centrists. That is the position where I am in. I have no special preference towards any sort of polarized media we have as of now and thus, usually get information from various sources with various inclinations.
The news media is owned by a private-owner group, work-owners, or foundations etc. The media’s bias is relevant to the special interest group’s inclinations. For example, The Chosun Ilbo(조선일보) is one of the most renowned conservative newspaper medium and owned by Bang family, a family which had a very close relationship with former president Park Chung-hee, who had been an idol of former Korean Conservative mainstream. The Hankyoreh(한겨레), however, was founded by several intellectuals and journalists who had been discharged by military authorities in late 70’s and 80’s. At its early stages, it was funded by founders and other active civilians and has shown progressive stance towards social and political issues.
Nowadays in some aspects the clearness has been weakening, and some contemporary press are trying to be objective and independent as possible. However, still it is hard to say that the owner’s political inclination is irrelevant to that of the media’s. A media is planted upon a specific soil, fed by that soil and live upon it, following soil’s nature.
From now on I would like to compare two articles from Hankyoreh and Chosun’s editorial section. They share the same subject, ‘The transfer of wartime control in between U.S. and R.O.K..’ However, the way they examine this matter is different. Hankyoreh says the transfer should have been finished already and the reason why it hasn’t been finished is because of last two former conservative government’s lack of willpower for self-reliance. They say the current government is not hastening it and it should not be postponed any longer. Hankyoreh emphasizes R.O.K. army’s heavy reliance on U.S. military assets and unnecessary subordination including the loss of operational capabilities. Additionally it ends up criticizing the former governments for their obscure reasons for past delays despite the past agreement that was made in 2007’s Defense Minister’s Conference (at that time the completion of transfer was set for APR 2012).
However, Chosun emphasizes stipulated procedures and also poses the suspicion that current government is using this emergency situation and lack of order after by-election in order to settle their change of policies without too much trouble that can be caused by oppositions. It also adds, the hastened decisions could harm the R.O.K.-U.S. alliance and diplomatic relationships with other surrounding nations. Chosun’s stance is clear, national security issues are different from others, given the fact that R.O.K. is in truce with North Korea and the tense of Northeast Asia is growing. They say it should be given more time and deeper considerations.
Both Hankyoreh and Chosun acknowledges the importance of proper discussions, agreements between R.O.K. and U.S., and social consensus that should be made beforehand. However their windows are different. Personally I give more credit to Hankyoreh’s opinion and agree that this transfer should not be delayed. R.O.K. army has a capability, right and potential to retake the operation control over the Korean Peninsula. However at the same time, Chosun’s emphasis upon discretion and execution of proper procedures are also valid. The past is the past and in dire extremity, we should be careful and be as one.
Yes, we should make decision carefully. It is true that when we didn't receive Wartime Operational Control, we have to spend more money on defense. The opinion that because of weapons of Mass Destruction danger can't be reason which is pointed by this article. I think it will help your opinion that we should not delay the receiving because of threat from weapons of Mass Destruction. It said there is different promise that if south Korea endangered by them the U.S army help to protect Nuclear attack by using strategic asset.

The scariest possibility is that sea level rising by the melting of ice cap covering Greenland. If ice cap covering Greenland is melted sea levels could rise by a lot more than today’s projection of 74cm by the end of the century.
The hard truth is that the Arctic as it is known today is almost certainly gone. Even if we try to reduce emission of carbon dioxide, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is too much to stop global warming. Humans cannot simply undo climate change. We will have to adapt to it.
Well, I'm also unsure about whether the climate change is caused by human beings, but it's certain that this phenomenon is causing some trouble in our daily lives, and so we need to do as much as we can in order to prolong the human beings' prosper.
오택원(Tom) 201332920 I usually read Joongangilbo which is represented Right side. There is word Jo, Joong, Dong which has conservative position, Kyung, Han which is opposite. They are first name of newspaper company names’. Chosunilbo, Joongangilbo, Dongailbo, Kunghyangilbo and Hankyoreh. The president of Joongang is seok-hyun Hong. He is also president of JTBC which is cable tv broadcasting channel. His wife is sister of kun-hee Lee who is owner of Samsung. He didn’t reveal his side but when he resigned from president of Joongang, he said “He want to help for the future of Korea.” in his resign e-mail to employee.
Recently in Korea, we are living in the chaos, we impeach and select new president and our government has to deal with several issues like agreement of Military Sexual Slavery by japen, fine dust or like THAAD problems which is not truly talked with people who is directly related with. So, I chose hot topic about THAAD(Terminal High Altitude Area Defense). I compared Joongang with Hankyoreh column. I can find some interesting point about two articles.
The both media shows their conversation with two person in charge. One is minister of Defense and the other is manger of National Security department.
Joongang criticized the Ruling party should be careful their attitude of opening Hearing before Blue house even doesn’t finish investigation. It also worries about Nation’s diplomatic problems with China and U.S.A. It propose that the government minimize the unnecessary rumor.
Hanhyoreh criticized Department of Defense more than Joongang. It pointed out the reason this happening is because of Department of Defense fault of missing part in report. And it also indicated the series of concealment decision since former government. I carefully conclude those two articles that we have to wait Blue house investigation and then decide whether the report is missing or just mis communication. Because it is not late to judge the problem after the result of investigation come out. I consider the fact first that there was problem with two person in charge and also two articles describe it commonly. And the last of things are writer’s thought. So I can just refer to their opinion, which is study that there is different opinion and hear diversity. It is nothing more, nothing less when we inform to other people. Thank you for reading.
You are right. We have to carefully speak opinion before the investigation concludes. But there is very specific evidence that supprots why they insist Department of Defense's omission(Details on website address below). If it concludes that Department of Defense's omission is on intention, they have to be punished right.
박범준 Newt (201333002) I do not believe that Moon Jae-in did not know this fact. Already on April 26th the facts about thaad had appeared on the news. And Moon had made a protest against. However, on May 30th, suddenly, there was an article called 'The fact that Mun Jae-in did not know.' What do you think? http://www.ytn.co.kr/_ln/0101_201704260500566680 http://www.ytn.co.kr/_ln/0101_201704260911195954 http://news.kmib.co.kr/article/view.asp?arcid=0011504403&code=61111211&cp=nv
I also agree with Newt. The THAAD policy is one of the main issues these days. Many conservative journalism are keep on questioning Moon's announcement because the THAAD issue itself is so suspicious. Also, progressive journalism focuses on the relationship between US and Korea as if they are trying to make people feel relieved. I don't think it's a right of reporting such an important incident. They should also be fully criticizing about the suspicious incident and if they support Moon's announcement, they need to give clear and direct evidence.
Commonly, left wing groups insist that climate change is caused by humans’ usage of carbon dioxide. On the other hand, right wing groups insist that climate change is natural phenomenon(Saying that we are on deglaciation phase).
Right wing groups has been claiming that climate change is not caused by human. And they have been saying that The carbon dioxide greenhouse Effect theory is made to restrict industry.(The Carbon Dioxide Greenhouse Effect theory is the theory that insist humans’ usage of carbon dioxide led global warming) They insist that all the evidences that explain The carbon dioxide greenhouse Effect theory is manipulated. And they say there’s no exact measured value of temperature of ancient time.
On the other hand, left wing groups claim that climate change is led by human. They showed some evidences. They say “carbon dioxide let heat from sunlight, but block its radiation back into space. And that traps heat in the air. more carbon dioxide equals more warming.” This is the main evidence. You can see more evidences on attached website address below. And they insist that right wing groups try to avoid their responsibility and they try to conceal the facts of climate change cause.

황지용(G) 201233080 Environmental group claimed Lower the dammed pool water level of '4 major river'. Despite a severe drought in some regions, six out of 16 weirs on the nation’s four major rivers will begin discharging water Thursday.
Articles of newspaper got 2 seperated view of this situation. most Right wing side has articles said drought is more urgent problem farm houses are suffering hardly. but on Left wing side articles said dam of '4 major river' has nothing to do with farmhouse water supply and they claimed opening more dam gate to reduce green algal blooms.

I heard that 4 major river is suffering of algal blooms. But I wasn't aware of two different perspectives were conflicting on this issue. So, those water could be used for agriculture?
박범준(Newt) 201333002 The paris climate agreement is a new climate agreement to be adopted after 2020, and all 195 parties participating in the agreement must keep their reduction plan. President Obama joined the agreement in 2015, but a few days before the new President Trump declared his intention to abandon the agreement. The withdrawal of the United States, the world's second largest carbon producer, has a significant impact on this agreement. Australia is also shaky, with some congressman demanding that they follow the United States.
I have found two articles from a conflicting viewpoint of this decision. Almost every article was a negative article on Trump's decision. The title of 'The Time' news article is 'California, New York and Washington Have United to Back the Paris Climate Accord' and 'France, Germany and Italy to President Trump: Paris Climate Agreement Can't Be Renegotiated'. https://goo.gl/1DHPvd https://goo.gl/cylTnp
The title of 'The Sun' news article is 'Donald Trump’s decision to take the US out of the Paris climate agreement could benefit us all'. This article says that pollution from greenhouse gases is fictitious and that astronomical money is wasted. https://goo.gl/24TW4p
Over time, we can see whether the claim that greenhouse gases affect the environment is true or false. If the claim is false, how will the United States compensate for the already polluted environment?
Your topic is so similar with mine. As far as I know, there is so much evidences that supports greenhouse gases affect the environment. Check the website I attached. And Those who refuse to accept green house effect theory dind't showed why. They just keep saying that is a conspiracy that try to restrict our industry. Almost everyone had admitted that green house effect theory is real execpt for the Republican Party. That's why you were hard to find positive article on Trump's decision. I think Trump's decision was very selfish. I know Donald Trump wants to Make America Grate Again, but this decision was so narrow-minded.
박범준 Newt (201333002) I do not want to tell whether the greenhouse gas is true or not. I also believe in greenhouse gas theory. What I am interested in is the US's responsibility. If their judgment is wrong, what and how US will compensate to earth.
I think the theory about greenhouse gases is true with the evidence of the effects that greenhouse gases have made. So what do you think about greenhouse gas problem?
Trump's attitude means that US government declares greenhouse effect as false information. However, 194 parties still haven't proclaimed greenhouse effect is false. US, as one of the countries that emits the largest amount of carbon dioxide, better be sure that greenhouse effect is false or else US would be the main country causing greenhouse effect.
When the incident happened, there were many articles about it. In South Korea, it was treated as the issue of racism. In my opinion, I think this is the case which is happened due to racism. Dong-A newspaper(Korean) said like this : there were 4 passengers who were picked to be out and 3 were Asian. Because of this, Koreans were mad about the incident and they all thought it was because of racism.
However, Foreign media such as New York Times, said like this : overbooking problem always happens and when the overbooking problem happens, airline offers things such as voucher to the passengers for later flight. Also, some money and a hotel room is offered too.
But in this case, nobody took the offer. Then, the manager told that 4 passengers will be selected to unboard the plane. Among the 4 passengers, there was a doctor who had to take care of his patients in the morning refused to unboard the plane. Other passengers agreed to unboard the plane.
What we have to know is that there are different perspective and opinion about NY Times and Dong-A newspaper. NY Times says that the picked four passengers were not selected by racism and showed the overbooking issues. However, Dong-A newspaper had different perspective. They said the incident was happened because of racism and have no trust with the airline's situation.
I think this can be the good example of the difference of perspective between one incident.

I read this article the Kyunghang and Dong-A. Dong-A is right side newspaper and Kyunghang is left side newspaper. Nowadays not so different between rightside newspaper and left side newspaper because readers getting smarter. But there is still a difference.
It is about THAAD. First paragraph of Dong-A says ‘President Moon Jae-in ordered on Tuesday a probe into what the presidential office called the undisclosed entry of four rocket launchers of the U.S. missile defense program. It is the first time Moon made an order on the U.S. THAAD system since his inauguration.’ People in conservative circles, Moon Jae-in president tend think it is vulnerable to security. So I think I stressed the first order. Also, the speculation that the incident is not caused by the negligence of the individual will usually cause the incident to be considered embarrassing and uncomfortable. The Dong-A Ilbo went straight to the chase.
After President Moon Jae-in received a report that four launchers for the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) missiles, in addition to the two already placed in Seongju, Gyeongsangbuk-do, were delivered to Korea, he ordered a thorough investigation of the details on May 30.
What concerns THAAD is that the former government has come from the previous administration, and the progressive defense minister also thinks that they are . a deep-rooted evil (Korean. Jeockpye)
However, the final paragraph of the two articles makes the two stories seem to be true as well. This assumes that the two newspapers have differing views, but they can not distort the facts. We believe that if we are Democrats, there should be no big news in the right newspaper, the left newspaper, or the middle of the newspaper.
President Moon Jae-in ordered on Tuesday a probe into what the presidential office called the undisclosed entry of four rocket launchers of the U.S. missile defense program. It is the first time Moon made an order on the U.S. THAAD system since his inauguration.
"President Moon was briefed on that fact that four additional rocket launchers were secretly brought into the country," Moon's chief press secretary Yoon Young-chan told a press briefing. "He ordered his senior secratary for civil affars and National Security Office chief to find out how and why the additional rocket launchers were brought into the country."
Yoon said the president was shocked to learn of the existence of four more rocket launchers, and called Defense Minister Han Min-koo to confirm.
The Presidential Office believes that the Defense Ministry intentionally hid the entry of the additional equipment. The ministry failed to report the fact to the new government during its national affairs policy briefing to the de facto presidential transition team on May 25. "The president ordered to find out how the four additional rocket launchers were brought into the country, who made such a decision, why this has not been disclosed to the public and why this has not been reported to the new government even to date," Yoon said. "Moon also ordered an investigation on whether it was intended to avoid scrunity over the possible impact of rocket launchers could have on the environment."
President Moon's order is a sign of national defense reform. Starting with the probe on the entry of the additional equipment, the Presidential Office is expected to seek resolutions to THAAD issue in earnest. "It is also a kind of gesture toward China that has been opposing to the deployment," a presidential office source said. "By retracing the THAAD deployment process of the former government, problems and resolutions could be obtained."

황지용 ( G ) 201233080 about News i think there is agitation to brain wash people. for example when you search articles with keyword 'moonjaein_THAAD_invastigation' only kyung-hyang and han-kyo-rae have Antipathogenic articles with pictures of protesing kids.
in my opinion, the reason why foreign newspapers not considering this incident as racism is not because they think the violence was alright, but since their society consists of many types of people so they just have different kind of perspective.
Then what do you think about this incident? I think Dong-A newspaper had regarded this incident as a racism because of what United airlines have done in past days. United airlines got bad images with the attitude towards passenger in the past. It was also about the racism and sexual discrimination.
Unless the airline explain there was no discrimination oh how those passengers (two black people, two asians) were selected and why airline cop used violence to the person who was asian denied to unboard, It's hard to admit >_<
I just wrote about merely the progressive newspapers and the conservative newspapers differ slightly in their descriptions but not in fact.I have no special idea about this case. I just think the president 's order is right.
My father subscribes Chosun daily newspaper. So I also read the news from Chosun mostly except for news from search engines. Chosun daily newspaper is well known for their right side perspective. It is really close to the conservative political party. After changing to Moon’s government from Park’s, when I see the newspaper, it always exaggerates worries and bad results what Moon’s government did or decided to do. On the other hand, it underestimates their outcomes.
Making 810 thousand jobs in the public is hot potato in Korea. Making jobs is a Moon’s government’s first pledge. Following their political stance, their reporting has differences. Chosun daily news that I usually read says that Moon’s government pledged to make 170 thousand new jobs but they don’t have any specific plan. And it also says government doesn’t have guideline for recruiting so there must be confusion. From the article, one of laboring expert says “It is a giving bomb to set up a recruiting method between labor and management.” (http://news.chosun.com/misaeng/site/data/html_dir/2017/06/02/2017060200202.html) On the other hand, Hankyoreh news says that road map for making 810 thousand jobs in the public will be coming up in a month. (http://www.hani.co.kr/arti/politics/politics_general/796104.html) Hankyoreh news doesn’t mention that Moon’s government is doing good or not so far. It seems like it tries to deliver the news only based on the fact. But Chosun daily news brought several experts have different perspectives against Moon’s government. So I thought that it is important to get information from different sources. Because even news has its own perspective and it reflects on its article.
I saw the same news that you are talking about and I was also confused about how they are going to recruit as many people they have mentioned. In your opinion what could be the specific plans to make more jobs ? For example, I heard that Moon's government is going to recruit police officer twice many than now. What specific plan could they give us in this case?
In case of chosun, it is not a bad idea of illegal to show their company's point of view to politic. However, the problem is they pretend they are objective. I think Korea have to set law their stands in front of newspaper.
Making 810 thousand jobs in the public in a month isn't really a trustful policy even at a glance. Hankyoreh news only seems to report the policy that Moon's govenment had announced. On the other hand, Chosun daily news criticizes the policy with the fact that Moon's government isn't giving any specific guidelins for the policy. If Hnakyoreh just reads out the policy Blue House reports, would it be different from North Korean media reporting KimJungEun's policy? No. They need to give certain data to support Moon's policy. I think Moon's policy isn't very trustful.
At the first day of June Trump decided to exit from the Paris climate agreement. And that's regarded as radical and thougtless behavior, so he's condemned again. -Is mainly what articles on major sites and tv news are saying. And i tried to find more rationality in Trump's mind. Nicky Haley,UN ambassador of US said Trump is aware of pollutant and decision he made doesn't mean the nation is going to stop considering enviroment but will follow their own criteria. Trump posted on twitter saying "the concept of global warming is made by China to harm US manufacturing industry. and global warming is a fraud to make us spend expensive cost." - i agree with that. Global warming is not clearly clarified and it should be replaced with the concept of climate change.
at november 2016 after Trump was elected he said he has open mind and he will be caring about enviromental issues by conducting many researches. And Scott Pruitt, administrator of US enviromental protecting agency said "US has been followed rules about lessening co2 emission..and when we joined to the agreement, headquarters of different nations smiled because they have this thought of holding US economy back...
I think we should have attention on how his plans will be realized and impact that plan has on enviroment..
Developing countries have not wanted to join climate agreement because they are now developing. So Trump's denial is enough to drag other countries attention. So what do you think about his action?
우정하(Jenna) 201433353 I found different opinions that the real impact on environment by US withdrawal from Paris climate agreement. The BBC predicted that US emissions of carbon would continue to decline even when Trump 's agreement was withdrawn. Because US depends more on gas than coal. The CNN, on the other hand, cited the results of a nonprofit climate change research group called Climate Interactive. CNN warned that if the United States stops cutting greenhouse gas reductions, the global average temperature could rise by about 0.3 degrees. (http://www.speconomy.com/news/articleView.html?idxno=84792) I also want to know the evidence of what Trump's says.
President Moon Jae In declared he will empower the National Human Rghts Commission of Korea. In specific, he mentioned the direct report from the commission to him, Mr. President. MBC and JTBC which are both influential tv news media reported this topics with far different stands.
First, MBC showed their opinion by highlighting the opposition party’s, Liberty Korea, main statement toward the new policy. The opposition party proclaimed that this is breaking the main rule of democracy, separation of powers because the new policy would be more powerful than the department of justice. MBC also ignored the other supporting option by Justice Party which is also a opposition party as Liberty Korea. (http://imnews.imbc.com/replay/2017/nwdesk/article/4319920_21408.html?menuid=nwdesk)
However, JTBC revealed their positive point of view to the new policy. MBC just report the direct report from the commission to President as using a word, reinstate of policy. Rather, JTBC concrete this saying it is set by law but it have been ignored by former governments especially President Lee and Park. SBS and Channel A has similar reports and KBS , TV Chosun, MBN didn’t talk about this issue in deep level.
In conclusion, MBC has negative stands toward not only this policy but also the new president, Moon. It is not surprising because Jungsu Scholorship Committee own a quarter of MBC stock. The Committee named after the President Park’s parents and it is supported by Liberty Korea. JTBC, on the other hand, it is also not surprising when it has negative viewpoints as MBC did. This is because JTBC has close relationship with Samsung which has been supporting the ex-president Park. However, JTBC hired the one of the most objective reporter, Soon Sukhee as a chief reporter of news at the company. That is why JTBC was able not to have subjective news.
I know what are you saying. So what is your opinion? You think JTBC is select right decison? and MBC include subjective news so is wrong? I really wonder what are you think about that

On May 30th, additional to 6 THAAD missiles that Blue House announced to place in Korea, 4 more of them were moved to SungJoo. Blue House said there is no plan of placing additional THAAD missiles and that minstry of national defense had not reported anythings realated to it. Here's what conservative journalism Donga Newspaper and progressive journlism Gyunghyang Newspaper each reported.
Donga focuses on resident Moon's personal management policy that has formally considered president Moon's defect; minister of national defense Han Min Goo avoids answering to questions related to additional THAAD missile placement. Donga also emphasizes minister Han's only answer towards media's question was "words make other words", and suspects Blue House's announcement.
On the other hand, Gyunghyang focuses on stability of Korea and US alliance and relieves the THAAD missile placement issue rather than questioning such an mysterious incident happened because of simple yet doubtful misunderstanding between mistry of national defense and Blue House.
I doubt that such an important policy like THAAD placement can be caused becasue of misunderstanding between ministry of national defense and Blue House. There could be more things going on that hasn't been revealed.
I think Gyunghang is not a good example newspaper to show their progressive point of view. It is rather simple news not mentioning any mistakes. You would better to chose another newspaper company
Few days ago, I read an article on the deficit of the Sinbundang line that their a total loss is 373.2 billion won at the end of last year and there is a possibility of bankruptcy. (http://news.chosun.com/site/data/html_dir/2017/06/02/2017060200252.html) and I searched the article to wonder what the extension project from Yongsan to Gwanggyo is now going on.
Through the search, I could find two conflicting views on the real estate price of the area related to the extension project of the Sinbundang line. This article of CNB news says that it is expected to have a negative impact on real estate prices around the homaesil station, which is scheduled for an extended period. (http://www.cnbnews.com/news/article.html?no=349630)
The other article of Bridgenew's title is "Increasing expectation of beneficiary area along the sinbundang line" Since apartment prices have soared so far, they expected to continue to rise (http://www.viva100.com/main/view.php?key=20170529010010219)
As Neo Trance, the operating company of the Sinbundang line announced that there is a possibility of bankruptcy, and bankruptcy will make it unclear whether the extension line will be completed. Sinbundang line seems to be inevitable to negative impact on apartment prices around the Sinbundang line.
June,1 U.S. President Donald Trump has officially announced his decision on withdrawal from the Paris climate pact. He said in a press conference at the White House, “The Paris accord is very unfair at the highest level to the United States. In order to fulfill my solemn duty to protect America and it citizens, the United States will withdraw from the Paris climate accord. I was elected to represent the citizens of Pittsburgh, not Paris,” He try to find new pact that more helpful to America and its citizens. (http://english.donga.com/Home/3/all/26/942599/1)
I think his decision is wrong. Because America is second-largest carbon emitter in the world and greatest economic country. So other country's are in several minds. Trump's opinion is compared to China and India, the United States suffers disadvantage and he insist earth warming is conspiracy theory. There is a lot of evidence backed up that theory. (http://33jaeseok.tistory.com/1355)
I understand his position. However this decision should have been more cautious. Barack Obama criticized his successor,“This administration joins a small handful of nations that reject the future.”And I agree too. As the president, respect the opinion of the people is virtue to have. There is so many people support Trump. But some people are not. I think he should more listen and share with them. That is the way to evolve America. Not only this time.
I agree with you. The United States should be as responsible as it is a great power. I think the United States needed to make the decision a bit more careful.
The reason and the side effects of Arctic ice disappearance
ReplyDeleteThe current climate change is mainly caused by certain gases in the atmosphere, notably carbon dioxide. These gases let heat from sunlight, but block its radiation back into space. And that traps heat in the air. more carbon dioxide equals more warming. And there’re more small factors that affect climate change.
Those who doubt the power of human beings to change Earth’s climate should look to the Arctic. The progress is easily visible in the shrinkage of the ice that covers the Arctic ocean. In the past 30 years, the minimum coverage of ice has fallen by half. On current speed, the Artic ocean will be out of ice in 2040.
Some might welcome ice-free Arctic ocean. Because they can get advantages from it such as shortcut for shipping between the Pacific coast of Asia and the Atlantic coasts of Europe and the Americas. But the right response should be fear.
A warming Arctic could have bad effects. The winds around world are affected by the temperature difference between the poles and the tropics. If climate of Artic goes up, the difference will decrease and wind speed will be slow downed. Less wind might sound desirable. It is not. It would spell blizzards and heatwaves in unexpected places at unexpected times.
The scariest possibility is that sea level rising by the melting of ice cap covering Greenland. If ice cap covering Greenland is melted sea levels could rise by a lot more than today’s projection of 74cm by the end of the century.
The hard truth is that the Arctic as it is known today is almost certainly gone. Even if we try to reduce emission of carbon dioxide, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is too much to stop global warming. Humans cannot simply undo climate change. We will have to adapt to it.
Cause of climate change
DeleteCommonly, left wing groups are saying that climate change is due to humans’ usage of carbon dioxide. On the other hand, right wing groups are saying that climate change is natural phenomenon.
Right wing groups has been claiming that climate change is not caused by human. And they have been saying that the global warming theory is made to restrict industry. But even very right wing media, washington times, wrote articles about exposing climate data manipulation. It was hard to find articles that claiming climate change is natural. And even though I found it, it didn't have enough evidence.
Left wing groups claim that climate change is led by human. And they say right wing groups try to avoid their responsibility and they try to conceal the facts of climate change cause. They showed many evidences of global warming.
Here’s the summary of a economist article (left wing) , and you can see the details on attached website address below.

Professor claimed University Forced Him To Teach Math Because ‘Asians Are Good At Math’.
Lawsuit claimed the political science head at the University of Illinois at Chicago also told him “Koreans are stubborn and don’t understand American culture.”
A Korean-American professor filed a lawsuit against the University of Illinois at Chicago, claiming that officials in his department “systematically harassed” him because of his ethnicity and forced him to teach a math class because he was Asian.
Seung-Whan Choi, a professor of international relations, says that UIC’s political science department denied him fair raises, treated him unfairly and forced him to teach classes that he wasn’t qualified to teach.
He said,
“They don’t like Korean-Americans,” Choi, a retired Army officer who was born in South Korea, told The Chicago Tribune. “I’m supposed to be very submissive to the department head, who is white-American.”
Choi believes that some of the mistreatment stems from his decision to file a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in 2010, after he was fired for an undisclosed reason. As a result of Choi’s 2010 complaint, the university settled with the professor through a mediator and reinstated Choi with a promotion in 2011.
Do you this kind of issue as a racism? yes I do.
Still those kind of prejudice ,unfair treatments and political within department happens among America nation.
What i want to share is that we students, have to break the fantasm of America that there would be no discriminations.
There are no perfect conditions even in America. I wanted to make it clear for whom are about to go America.

ReplyDeleteI read article on Chosun newspaper about the negative effect of new president’s pledge. The pledge is about supervising Chaebol company occupation opportunity trend. The article points out that this pledge might lead to another a back-scratching alliance of government and business. This is because they think if the president controls Chaebol companies, then Chaebol companies would follow the president’s order and it means the president interfere in Chaebol companies management. In addition, the article said in capitalism, the government should not control the companies. The article concludes Moon jae in’s pledge negatively and advocate Chaebol’s companies position. They also think it’s pledge leads to a back-scratching alliance of government and business. On the left side of Hankearae newspaper, with the same news title, it doesn’t mention about negative opinion. Chosun newspaper is very right side of newspaper. So I believe the article is quite biased. In addition, the comment on the Chosun newspaper article, the article is showing supposition which is way too far. A back-scratching alliance of governemt and business means when the government officer receives bribes from the company but this pledge is about realizing the Chaebol company’s occupation opportunity trend. It doesn’t involve the undercover cooperation with government and Chaebol companies. In addition, I think in some ways the government should restrict Chaebol company because Chaebol is very powerful and they can influence small companies violently if they are not restricted by government.

But still small company needs investment.Then where the investment comes from. If we touches chaebol company with too much regulations, it will not only harm to our economic situation, but also endanger the small company.

DeleteI agree with Miso's idea. BBC advocates overbooking system but it is actually their fault to measure wrongly consumer demand.They should have not done overbooking or measured accurately. And if they are clear about the random draw, they should open to public and remove the rumor
I read articles which reports about the United airline incident.
ReplyDeleteIn South Korea, It has become a issue about racism.
As a Korean, I couldn't agree more that It happened becasue of racism.
This is what korean artikel (Dong-A newspaper) said : There were 4 picked up passengers who were meant to be out, But 3 of them were Asian.
When koreans first read this articls, They were very mad about this incident. no one ever thought the other way.
But, Foreign Broadcast systems, such as BBC, is describing this incident like this :
Overbooking on flights happens all the time. And when there's and overbooking issue, they opfer an inducemnet to the passengers to take a later flight.
Proper amount of money and a hotel room for the night is offered.
When no one takes the offer, the amount of money goes up.
In this case, no one took the offer. So a manager boarded the flight and informed passengers that four people would be selected to leave the aeroplane.
That selection was based on several factors, but frequent fliers and higher fare paying passengers were given priority to stay.
A couple who were selected agreed to leave the plane voluntarily. A third passenger, reportedly the wife of the man who was forcibly removed, also agreed.
The man, who said he was a doctor and had to see patients in the morning, refused.
So, what we need to focus and read carefully is the different perspecive between BBC and Korean Dong-A newspaper.
BBC clearly says that crews of United Airline did not picked four people by racism. They show the evidence by talking about standard guideline of overbooking issues.
But Korean Dong-A newspaper, They have nuance of distrust, distrusting what United airline says.
This was such a good example that shows perspectives can be so diffrent like this on one incident, according to whom speaks about it.

DeleteI think the United airline incident's racism controversy is poped up because of thier prior behavior. They had done so many rasicm discrimination. You can see details here_> http://www.ytn.co.kr/_ln/0104_201704111413455681. It is not baseless opinion. As long as I know the United airline didn't showed the clear evidence of how random select was chosen. What was the evidence?
I also agree with Jason2's opinion. When Korean people first saw the news, they were upset and had supposition of this incident could be related to racism. However, when they saw the news about what United airlines have done , they got conviction of that was actually a racism and got mad about this incident. Also what you said was that they gave the standard guidelines but we couldn't see that guidelines anywhere.
DeleteUmm, I think their is no revealing evidence about how does the 4 people are selected. We knows that overbooked people with disabilities and unaccompanied minors should be the last to be kicked off, according to the company's carriage contract and also will also consider "severe hardships". However It doesn't mean there is racism. Still we don't know the exact reason why they choose one by one by option role.
DeleteAs many of you might assume, these American airlines really do some insane things as reported recently. About this incident, in my opinion, I think they(the airlines) have done nothing great about it, but still, I do not really consider it as racists' one. It's that violence they have done but the people whom they have "attack"ed.
DeleteIf there were more Asians than any other race, it could be happened stochastically. But, I don't think it would have been. They need to open to the public how they chose people randomly and passengers race so that people can understand. It made people suppose that United airline did racism even though they didn't do it or meant it.
DeleteIs there any specific evidence that this happened because of rasicim? It would be better you give some url reference to support your writing.

DeleteI think United Airline issue has nothing to do with racism based on two different perspectives of these medias. Donga reported it is realted to racism just beacuse 3 out of 4 passengers who were meant to be out were asians. That can happen. Donga just reported it is a racism because they wanted it be an issue in Korea. However, BBC reports based on policy of United Airline and exact progress of the issue. I have to say BBC's report is way more trustworty that that of Donga.

DeleteI also saw an explanation through the article that United Airlines picked passengers at random.
For the airline, not all passengers are equal. And the class of passengers is divided by how much you bought your ticket and how often you fly. It is for this reason that some experts are suspicious that the recent controversial United Airlines mandate has been randomly selected.

ReplyDeleteThe Trump Risk
These days, we can see some news about the impeachment of US president Donald Trump. Since US is the most powerful and influential country in the world, all countries are observing US's behavior closely. In Korea, there are several different sights about this 'Trump Risk' whether it is going to affect Korea seriously or not. First, Dong-A newspaper said that this incident will affect Korea negatively. They emphasized especially the steel and electronics companies might be more influenced critically than other parts. To defend their opinion, they suggested the examples of Trump's two policies which were 'Protective trade' and 'Isolation'. Actually Trump warned Toyota (Japan's automobile company) to build a factory in America or Japan should bear huge amount of border taxes. The reason why Dong-A gave this example is that Korean companies like KIA automobile, Samsung electronics, LG electronics and Hyundai Mobis also have their factories in Mexico not in America. Since Donald Trump claimed to withdraw from Trans-Pacific Partnership and renegotiate
North American Free Trade Agreement before becoming a president. So Korean companies who have their factory in Mexico are keep tracking this problem. However, CBS network did not take this problem seriously. They invited the economist Seong to ask opinions. The economist Seong focused on Trump's position rahter than his policies. What he claimed was the effect coming from his policies might not be that serious or effective in practice but, the uncertainty of his future position can cause more problems potentially. He said it takes a lot of time that a policy to be fulfilled in practice and in the situation of whether Trump is going be impeached or not, it will be much harder. I also agree that uncertainty of Donald Trump's position makes world more confused and until this problem ends, nobody knows what influences or results it might cause to other countries.

DeleteTrump professed to make the United States again great, and as a result he was elected president. Should US President Trump take care of Korean and Japanese economy? If factories enter the United States, America's economy will certainly improve. I do not think Trump is wrong in the view of the president of the United States.
An FTA is an agreement that both of the subjects(US and another) signed on the same paper. Everyone knows that it's what "Trump" did not do, but there should be some kind of responsibility at least. I'm not sure why he can say like that(FTA can be renegotiated), but I'm feeling that it's not a right thing if he's just saying like that.
DeleteTrump is expected to make good negotiations with Korea on the US side. I hope that negotiations with the United States will make a deal that does not involve much damage to Korea.

ReplyDeleteAfter the French Revolution there have been the Left and the Right. These two parties have greatly influenced society and its individuals including the media. Between these two wings we have the Centrists. That is the position where I am in. I have no special preference towards any sort of polarized media we have as of now and thus, usually get information from various sources with various inclinations.
The news media is owned by a private-owner group, work-owners, or foundations etc. The media’s bias is relevant to the special interest group’s inclinations. For example, The Chosun Ilbo(조선일보) is one of the most renowned conservative newspaper medium and owned by Bang family, a family which had a very close relationship with former president Park Chung-hee, who had been an idol of former Korean Conservative mainstream. The Hankyoreh(한겨레), however, was founded by several intellectuals and journalists who had been discharged by military authorities in late 70’s and 80’s. At its early stages, it was funded by founders and other active civilians and has shown progressive stance towards social and political issues.
Nowadays in some aspects the clearness has been weakening, and some contemporary press are trying to be objective and independent as possible. However, still it is hard to say that the owner’s political inclination is irrelevant to that of the media’s. A media is planted upon a specific soil, fed by that soil and live upon it, following soil’s nature.
From now on I would like to compare two articles from Hankyoreh and Chosun’s editorial section. They share the same subject, ‘The transfer of wartime control in between U.S. and R.O.K..’ However, the way they examine this matter is different. Hankyoreh says the transfer should have been finished already and the reason why it hasn’t been finished is because of last two former conservative government’s lack of willpower for self-reliance. They say the current government is not hastening it and it should not be postponed any longer. Hankyoreh emphasizes R.O.K. army’s heavy reliance on U.S. military assets and unnecessary subordination including the loss of operational capabilities. Additionally it ends up criticizing the former governments for their obscure reasons for past delays despite the past agreement that was made in 2007’s Defense Minister’s Conference (at that time the completion of transfer was set for APR 2012).
However, Chosun emphasizes stipulated procedures and also poses the suspicion that current government is using this emergency situation and lack of order after by-election in order to settle their change of policies without too much trouble that can be caused by oppositions. It also adds, the hastened decisions could harm the R.O.K.-U.S. alliance and diplomatic relationships with other surrounding nations. Chosun’s stance is clear, national security issues are different from others, given the fact that R.O.K. is in truce with North Korea and the tense of Northeast Asia is growing. They say it should be given more time and deeper considerations.
Both Hankyoreh and Chosun acknowledges the importance of proper discussions, agreements between R.O.K. and U.S., and social consensus that should be made beforehand. However their windows are different. Personally I give more credit to Hankyoreh’s opinion and agree that this transfer should not be delayed. R.O.K. army has a capability, right and potential to retake the operation control over the Korean Peninsula. However at the same time, Chosun’s emphasis upon discretion and execution of proper procedures are also valid. The past is the past and in dire extremity, we should be careful and be as one.

Yes, we should make decision carefully. It is true that when we didn't receive Wartime Operational Control, we have to spend more money on defense. The opinion that because of weapons of Mass Destruction danger can't be reason which is pointed by this article. I think it will help your opinion that we should not delay the receiving because of threat from weapons of Mass Destruction. It said there is different promise that if south Korea endangered by them the U.S army help to protect Nuclear attack by using strategic asset.

Cause of climate change
ReplyDeleteCommonly, left wing groups are saying that climate change is due to humans’ usage of carbon dioxide. On the other hand, right wing groups are saying that climate change is natural phenomenon.
Right wing groups has been claiming that climate change is not caused by human. And they have been saying that the global warming theory is made to restrict industry. But even very right wing media, washington times, wrote articles about exposing climate data manipulation. It was hard to find articles that claiming climate change is natural. And even though I found it, it didn't have enough evidence.
Left wing groups claim that climate change is led by human. And they say right wing groups try to avoid their responsibility and they try to conceal the facts of climate change cause. They showed many evidences of global warming.
Here’s the summary of a economist article (left wing) , and you can see the details on attached website address below.
The current climate change is mainly caused by certain gases in the atmosphere, notably carbon dioxide. These gases let heat from sunlight, but block its radiation back into space. And that traps heat in the air. more carbon dioxide equals more warming. And there’re more small factors that affect climate change.
Those who doubt the power of human beings to change Earth’s climate should look to the Arctic. The progress is easily visible in the shrinkage of the ice that covers the Arctic ocean. In the past 30 years, the minimum coverage of ice has fallen by half. On current speed, the Artic ocean will be out of ice in 2040.
Some might welcome ice-free Arctic ocean. Because they can get advantages from it such as shortcut for shipping between the Pacific coast of Asia and the Atlantic coasts of Europe and the Americas. But the right response should be fear.
A warming Arctic could have bad effects. The winds around world are affected by the temperature difference between the poles and the tropics. If climate of Artic goes up, the difference will decrease and wind speed will be slow downed. Less wind might sound desirable. It is not. It would spell blizzards and heatwaves in unexpected places at unexpected times.
The scariest possibility is that sea level rising by the melting of ice cap covering Greenland. If ice cap covering Greenland is melted sea levels could rise by a lot more than today’s projection of 74cm by the end of the century.
The hard truth is that the Arctic as it is known today is almost certainly gone. Even if we try to reduce emission of carbon dioxide, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is too much to stop global warming. Humans cannot simply undo climate change. We will have to adapt to it.

ReplyDeleteI usually read Joongangilbo which is represented Right side. There is word Jo, Joong, Dong which has conservative position, Kyung, Han which is opposite. They are first name of newspaper company names’. Chosunilbo, Joongangilbo, Dongailbo, Kunghyangilbo and Hankyoreh. The president of Joongang is seok-hyun Hong. He is also president of JTBC which is cable tv broadcasting channel. His wife is sister of kun-hee Lee who is owner of Samsung. He didn’t reveal his side but when he resigned from president of Joongang, he said “He want to help for the future of Korea.” in his resign e-mail to employee.
Recently in Korea, we are living in the chaos, we impeach and select new president and our government has to deal with several issues like agreement of Military Sexual Slavery by japen, fine dust or like THAAD problems which is not truly talked with people who is directly related with. So, I chose hot topic about THAAD(Terminal High Altitude Area Defense). I compared Joongang with Hankyoreh column. I can find some interesting point about two articles.
The both media shows their conversation with two person in charge. One is minister of Defense and the other is manger of National Security department.
Joongang criticized the Ruling party should be careful their attitude of opening Hearing before Blue house even doesn’t finish investigation. It also worries about Nation’s diplomatic problems with China and U.S.A. It propose that the government minimize the unnecessary rumor.
Hanhyoreh criticized Department of Defense more than Joongang. It pointed out the reason this happening is because of Department of Defense fault of missing part in report. And it also indicated the series of concealment decision since former government.
I carefully conclude those two articles that we have to wait Blue house investigation and then decide whether the report is missing or just mis communication. Because it is not late to judge the problem after the result of investigation come out. I consider the fact first that there was problem with two person in charge and also two articles describe it commonly. And the last of things are writer’s thought. So I can just refer to their opinion, which is study that there is different opinion and hear diversity. It is nothing more, nothing less when we inform to other people.
Thank you for reading.

I also agree with Newt. The THAAD policy is one of the main issues these days. Many conservative journalism are keep on questioning Moon's announcement because the THAAD issue itself is so suspicious. Also, progressive journalism focuses on the relationship between US and Korea as if they are trying to make people feel relieved. I don't think it's a right of reporting such an important incident. They should also be fully criticizing about the suspicious incident and if they support Moon's announcement, they need to give clear and direct evidence.

Right wing groups has been claiming that climate change is not caused by human.

ReplyDeleteThe paris climate agreement is a new climate agreement to be adopted after 2020, and all 195 parties participating in the agreement must keep their reduction plan.
President Obama joined the agreement in 2015, but a few days before the new President Trump declared his intention to abandon the agreement. The withdrawal of the United States, the world's second largest carbon producer, has a significant impact on this agreement. Australia is also shaky, with some congressman demanding that they follow the United States.
I have found two articles from a conflicting viewpoint of this decision.
Almost every article was a negative article on Trump's decision. The title of 'The Time' news article is 'California, New York and Washington Have United to Back the Paris Climate Accord' and 'France, Germany and Italy to President Trump: Paris Climate Agreement Can't Be Renegotiated'.
https://goo.gl/1DHPvd
https://goo.gl/cylTnp
The title of 'The Sun' news article is 'Donald Trump’s decision to take the US out of the Paris climate agreement could benefit us all'. This article says that pollution from greenhouse gases is fictitious and that astronomical money is wasted.
https://goo.gl/24TW4p
Over time, we can see whether the claim that greenhouse gases affect the environment is true or false. If the claim is false, how will the United States compensate for the already polluted environment?

And Those who refuse to accept green house effect theory dind't showed why. They just keep saying that is a conspiracy that try to restrict our industry. Almost everyone had admitted that green house effect theory is real execpt for the Republican Party. That's why you were hard to find positive article on Trump's decision.

I think the theory about greenhouse gases is true with the evidence of the effects that greenhouse gases have made. So what do you think about greenhouse gas problem?
DeleteI agree with Jason2 that the decision of Trump was a selfish one.
DeleteTrump's attitude means that US government declares greenhouse effect as false information. However, 194 parties still haven't proclaimed greenhouse effect is false. US, as one of the countries that emits the largest amount of carbon dioxide, better be sure that greenhouse effect is false or else US would be the main country causing greenhouse effect.
DeleteI also agree with you guys. I think the United States needed to make the decision a bit more careful.
DeleteWhen the incident happened, there were many articles about it. In South Korea, it was treated as the issue of racism. In my opinion, I think this is the case which is happened due to racism.
ReplyDeleteDong-A newspaper(Korean) said like this : there were 4 passengers who were picked to be out and 3 were Asian. Because of this, Koreans were mad about the incident and they all thought it was because of racism.
However, Foreign media such as New York Times, said like this : overbooking problem always happens and when the overbooking problem happens, airline offers things such as voucher to the passengers for later flight. Also, some money and a hotel room is offered too.
But in this case, nobody took the offer. Then, the manager told that 4 passengers will be selected to unboard the plane. Among the 4 passengers, there was a doctor who had to take care of his patients in the morning refused to unboard the plane. Other passengers agreed to unboard the plane.
What we have to know is that there are different perspective and opinion about NY Times and Dong-A newspaper. NY Times says that the picked four passengers were not selected by racism and showed the overbooking issues. However, Dong-A newspaper had different perspective. They said the incident was happened because of racism and have no trust with the airline's situation.
I think this can be the good example of the difference of perspective between one incident.

DeleteDong-A is right side newspaper and Kyunghang is left side newspaper.
Nowadays not so different between rightside newspaper and left side newspaper
because readers getting smarter. But there is still a difference.
It is about THAAD.
First paragraph of Dong-A says ‘President Moon Jae-in ordered on Tuesday a probe into what the presidential office called the undisclosed entry of four rocket launchers of the U.S. missile defense program. It is the first time Moon made an order on the U.S. THAAD system since his inauguration.’ People in conservative circles, Moon Jae-in president tend think it is vulnerable to security. So I think I stressed the first order. Also, the speculation that the incident is not caused by the negligence of the individual will usually cause the incident to be considered embarrassing and uncomfortable. The Dong-A Ilbo went straight to the chase.
After President Moon Jae-in received a report that four launchers for the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) missiles, in addition to the two already placed in Seongju, Gyeongsangbuk-do, were delivered to Korea, he ordered a thorough investigation of the details on May 30.
What concerns THAAD is that the former government has come from the previous administration, and the progressive defense minister also thinks that they are . a deep-rooted evil (Korean. Jeockpye)
However, the final paragraph of the two articles makes the two stories seem to be true as well. This assumes that the two newspapers have differing views, but they can not distort the facts. We believe that if we are Democrats, there should be no big news in the right newspaper, the left newspaper, or the middle of the newspaper.

Pres. Moon orders probe into THAAD launchers' undisclosed entry
President Moon Jae-in ordered on Tuesday a probe into what the presidential office called the undisclosed entry of four rocket launchers of the U.S. missile defense program. It is the first time Moon made an order on the U.S. THAAD system since his inauguration.
"President Moon was briefed on that fact that four additional rocket launchers were secretly brought into the country," Moon's chief press secretary Yoon Young-chan told a press briefing. "He ordered his senior secratary for civil affars and National Security Office chief to find out how and why the additional rocket launchers were brought into the country."
Yoon said the president was shocked to learn of the existence of four more rocket launchers, and called Defense Minister Han Min-koo to confirm.
The Presidential Office believes that the Defense Ministry intentionally hid the entry of the additional equipment. The ministry failed to report the fact to the new government during its national affairs policy briefing to the de facto presidential transition team on May 25. "The president ordered to find out how the four additional rocket launchers were brought into the country, who made such a decision, why this has not been disclosed to the public and why this has not been reported to the new government even to date," Yoon said. "Moon also ordered an investigation on whether it was intended to avoid scrunity over the possible impact of rocket launchers could have on the environment."
President Moon's order is a sign of national defense reform. Starting with the probe on the entry of the additional equipment, the Presidential Office is expected to seek resolutions to THAAD issue in earnest. "It is also a kind of gesture toward China that has been opposing to the deployment," a presidential office source said. "By retracing the THAAD deployment process of the former government, problems and resolutions could be obtained."

have Antipathogenic articles with pictures of protesing kids.

in my opinion, the reason why foreign newspapers not considering this incident as racism is not because they think the violence was alright, but since their society consists of many types of people so they just have different kind of perspective.
DeleteThen what do you think about this incident? I think Dong-A newspaper had regarded this incident as a racism because of what United airlines have done in past days. United airlines got bad images with the attitude towards passenger in the past. It was also about the racism and sexual discrimination.
DeleteUnless the airline explain there was no discrimination oh how those passengers (two black people, two asians) were selected and why airline cop used violence to the person who was asian denied to unboard, It's hard to admit >_<
DeleteI just wrote about merely the progressive newspapers and the conservative newspapers differ slightly in their descriptions but not in fact.I have no special idea about this case. I just think the president 's order is right.
DeleteMy father subscribes Chosun daily newspaper. So I also read the news from Chosun mostly except for news from search engines. Chosun daily newspaper is well known for their right side perspective. It is really close to the conservative political party.
ReplyDeleteAfter changing to Moon’s government from Park’s, when I see the newspaper, it always exaggerates worries and bad results what Moon’s government did or decided to do. On the other hand, it underestimates their outcomes.
Making 810 thousand jobs in the public is hot potato in Korea. Making jobs is a Moon’s government’s first pledge. Following their political stance, their reporting has differences.
Chosun daily news that I usually read says that Moon’s government pledged to make 170 thousand new jobs but they don’t have any specific plan. And it also says government doesn’t have guideline for recruiting so there must be confusion. From the article, one of laboring expert says “It is a giving bomb to set up a recruiting method between labor and management.”
(http://news.chosun.com/misaeng/site/data/html_dir/2017/06/02/2017060200202.html)
On the other hand, Hankyoreh news says that road map for making 810 thousand jobs in the public will be coming up in a month.
(http://www.hani.co.kr/arti/politics/politics_general/796104.html)
Hankyoreh news doesn’t mention that Moon’s government is doing good or not so far. It seems like it tries to deliver the news only based on the fact. But Chosun daily news brought several experts have different perspectives against Moon’s government. So I thought that it is important to get information from different sources. Because even news has its own perspective and it reflects on its article.
I saw the same news that you are talking about and I was also confused about how they are going to recruit as many people they have mentioned. In your opinion what could be the specific plans to make more jobs ? For example, I heard that Moon's government is going to recruit police officer twice many than now. What specific plan could they give us in this case?
DeleteIn case of chosun, it is not a bad idea of illegal to show their company's point of view to politic. However, the problem is they pretend they are objective. I think Korea have to set law their stands in front of newspaper.
DeleteMaking 810 thousand jobs in the public in a month isn't really a trustful policy even at a glance. Hankyoreh news only seems to report the policy that Moon's govenment had announced. On the other hand, Chosun daily news criticizes the policy with the fact that Moon's government isn't giving any specific guidelins for the policy. If Hnakyoreh just reads out the policy Blue House reports, would it be different from North Korean media reporting KimJungEun's policy? No. They need to give certain data to support Moon's policy. I think Moon's policy isn't very trustful.

ReplyDeleteAt the first day of June Trump decided to exit from the Paris climate agreement. And that's regarded as radical and thougtless behavior, so he's condemned again.
-Is mainly what articles on major sites and tv news are saying. And i tried to find more rationality in Trump's mind.
Nicky Haley,UN ambassador of US said Trump is aware of pollutant and decision he made doesn't mean the nation is going to stop considering enviroment but will follow their own criteria. Trump posted on twitter saying "the concept of global warming is made by China to harm US manufacturing industry. and global warming is a fraud to make us spend expensive cost." - i agree with that. Global warming is not clearly clarified and it should be replaced with the concept of climate change.
at november 2016 after Trump was elected he said he has open mind and he will be caring about enviromental issues by conducting many researches.
And Scott Pruitt, administrator of US enviromental protecting agency said "US has been followed rules about lessening co2 emission..and when we joined to the agreement, headquarters of different nations smiled because they have this thought of holding US economy back...
I think we should have attention on how his plans will be realized and impact that plan has on enviroment..
Developing countries have not wanted to join climate agreement because they are now developing. So Trump's denial is enough to drag other countries attention. So what do you think about his action?
DeleteWould you please what kind of major sites and tv news? I want to look through their news and your text need some more evidence.

DeleteI found different opinions that the real impact on environment by US withdrawal from Paris climate agreement.
The BBC predicted that US emissions of carbon would continue to decline even when Trump 's agreement was withdrawn. Because US depends more on gas than coal.
The CNN, on the other hand, cited the results of a nonprofit climate change research group called Climate Interactive. CNN warned that if the United States stops cutting greenhouse gas reductions, the global average temperature could rise by about 0.3 degrees.

I also want to know the evidence of what Trump's says.
President Moon Jae In declared he will empower the National Human Rghts Commission of Korea. In specific, he mentioned the direct report from the commission to him, Mr. President. MBC and JTBC which are both influential tv news media reported this topics with far different stands.
ReplyDeleteFirst, MBC showed their opinion by highlighting the opposition party’s, Liberty Korea, main statement toward the new policy. The opposition party proclaimed that this is breaking the main rule of democracy, separation of powers because the new policy would be more powerful than the department of justice. MBC also ignored the other supporting option by Justice Party which is also a opposition party as Liberty Korea.
(http://imnews.imbc.com/replay/2017/nwdesk/article/4319920_21408.html?menuid=nwdesk)
However, JTBC revealed their positive point of view to the new policy. MBC just report the direct report from the commission to President as using a word, reinstate of policy. Rather, JTBC concrete this saying it is set by law but it have been ignored by former governments especially President Lee and Park. SBS and Channel A has similar reports and KBS , TV Chosun, MBN didn’t talk about this issue in deep level.
(http://news.jtbc.joins.com/article/article.aspx?news_id=NB11473780&pDate=20170525)
In conclusion, MBC has negative stands toward not only this policy but also the new president, Moon. It is not surprising because Jungsu Scholorship Committee own a quarter of MBC stock. The Committee named after the President Park’s parents and it is supported by Liberty Korea. JTBC, on the other hand, it is also not surprising when it has negative viewpoints as MBC did. This is because JTBC has close relationship with Samsung which has been supporting the ex-president Park. However, JTBC hired the one of the most objective reporter, Soon Sukhee as a chief reporter of news at the company. That is why JTBC was able not to have subjective news.
I know what are you saying. So what is your opinion? You think JTBC is select right decison? and MBC include subjective news so is wrong?
DeleteI really wonder what are you think about that

ReplyDeleteOn May 30th, additional to 6 THAAD missiles that Blue House announced to place in Korea, 4 more of them were moved to SungJoo. Blue House said there is no plan of placing additional THAAD missiles and that minstry of national defense had not reported anythings realated to it. Here's what conservative journalism Donga Newspaper and progressive journlism Gyunghyang Newspaper each reported.
Donga focuses on resident Moon's personal management policy that has formally considered president Moon's defect; minister of national defense Han Min Goo avoids answering to questions related to additional THAAD missile placement. Donga also emphasizes minister Han's only answer towards media's question was "words make other words", and suspects Blue House's announcement.
On the other hand, Gyunghyang focuses on stability of Korea and US alliance and relieves the THAAD missile placement issue rather than questioning such an mysterious incident happened because of simple yet doubtful misunderstanding between mistry of national defense and Blue House.
I doubt that such an important policy like THAAD placement can be caused becasue of misunderstanding between ministry of national defense and Blue House. There could be more things going on that hasn't been revealed.
I think Gyunghang is not a good example newspaper to show their progressive point of view. It is rather simple news not mentioning any mistakes. You would better to chose another newspaper company

ReplyDeleteFew days ago, I read an article on the deficit of the Sinbundang line that their a total loss is 373.2 billion won at the end of last year and there is a possibility of bankruptcy.
(http://news.chosun.com/site/data/html_dir/2017/06/02/2017060200252.html)
and I searched the article to wonder what the extension project from Yongsan to Gwanggyo is now going on.
Through the search, I could find two conflicting views on the real estate price of the area related to the extension project of the Sinbundang line.
This article of CNB news says that it is expected to have a negative impact on real estate prices around the homaesil station, which is scheduled for an extended period.
(http://www.cnbnews.com/news/article.html?no=349630)
The other article of Bridgenew's title is "Increasing expectation of beneficiary area along the sinbundang line"
Since apartment prices have soared so far, they expected to continue to rise
(http://www.viva100.com/main/view.php?key=20170529010010219)
As Neo Trance, the operating company of the Sinbundang line announced that there is a possibility of bankruptcy, and bankruptcy will make it unclear whether the extension line will be completed. Sinbundang line seems to be inevitable to negative impact on apartment prices around the Sinbundang line.

ReplyDeleteJune,1 U.S. President Donald Trump has officially announced his decision on withdrawal from the Paris climate pact. He said in a press conference at the White House, “The Paris accord is very unfair at the highest level to the United States. In order to fulfill my solemn duty to protect America and it citizens, the United States will withdraw from the Paris climate accord. I was elected to represent the citizens of Pittsburgh, not Paris,”
He try to find new pact that more helpful to America and its citizens.
(http://english.donga.com/Home/3/all/26/942599/1)
I think his decision is wrong. Because America is second-largest carbon emitter in the world and greatest economic country. So other country's are in several minds. Trump's opinion is compared to China and India, the United States suffers disadvantage and he insist earth warming is conspiracy theory. There is a lot of evidence backed up that theory.
(http://33jaeseok.tistory.com/1355)
I understand his position. However this decision should have been more cautious. Barack Obama criticized his successor,“This administration joins a small handful of nations that reject the future.”And I agree too. As the president, respect the opinion of the people is virtue to have. There is so many people support Trump. But some people are not. I think he should more listen and share with them. That is the way to evolve America. Not only this time.
I agree with you. The United States should be as responsible as it is a great power. I think the United States needed to make the decision a bit more careful.
