Full of awesomeness.

What NWF does in Global Warming


Our Global Warming Work by the NWF is a short article of how global warming affects wildlife and what the WF does to stop it.
            The author’s purpose is to inform. I know this because the author informs the reader of what global warming is. He/she also informs the reader of how the NWF cuts greenhouse gas emissions. It is not persuasion because the author never addresses the reader. He only writes about what the NWF does such as “Advocating for Clean Energy Sources” and “Safeguarding Wildlife and Ecosystems”. The author uses bullet points to list the different ways the National Wildlife Federation is helping prevent global warming. He uses 1 fact that is very bias in the beginning of his article.
            The author’s viewpoint is that global warming is horrendous and the NWF are doing good by stopping it. He/she uses bias facts such as “In the lifetime of a child born today, 20-30 percent of the world's plant and animal species will be on the brink of extinction because of global warming.” He/she uses bold words that are important and significant. This quote uses a negative tone of global warming and uses words like “brink of extinction”. He also uses a picture of a duck to illustrate that many animals will be affected by global warming.
            This article is very trustworthy because of the author’s credentials. The author works in the NWF, which is the largest American wildlife conservation organization. It is also updated a lot to show exact info. He/she also links to other pages to show that they are helping to solve that problem.
            Overall, this article is very good at conveying what global warming is, how it affects the environment, and what NWF are doing to stop it. There is a little bias, there being no counterargument in the issue of global warming, but there is another article on their site. This page and site are great for people researching global warming, its effects and what people are doing to prevent it.
