__**Primary Document 1**__ [|Document on primary environmental issues in Argentina.] This document not only tells the different environmental issues going on in Argentina but also describes what the government needs to do and has done to help these problems. It states that a new environmental legal framework must be implemented and regualted very soon. Also it states that Argentina has not had a full report of the status of it's environment and information differs between specific areas, natural resources, and envirnomental issues. All of these indicators are very important for the improvement in the envirnoment. This primary document was knowledgeable because it told me the things that aren't going on that should be going on to help the environment of Argentina.

__**Primary Document 2**__ [|Document explaining multiple obstacles to possible solutions of Argentina's environmental problems.] This primary source explains the problems and obstacles that are happening and preventing Argintina from fixing and stoping to destroy their environment. These problems include the preception of the people and the leaders of the country. Publicity of the environmental issues is necessary to help stop them and so far a little amount of that has ben done. The document also states that the pace of industrialaztion is a problem because it has been growing and increasing yearly. The industries must respect the environment and stop the harm they are doing to it. This document was a very good insight to the way the country is handling the problems with the envirnoment and as I found out, not handling it well at all.

[|This website shows information about the environment issue of deforestation in Argintina.] This artifact is a website of facts showing information about the issue of defforestation in Argintina. It says that between 1990 and 2010, Argintina lost a total of about 15.5% of it's forrests due to deforestation. Argintina's forests are home to over 1900 species and with the forrests getting wiped out, they have no where to live or go. 13.3% of these animals are found and exist only in Argintia and another 6% or so are endangered. With these forrests getting cut down constantly, these animals again have no place to live. This website was very useful to me because it opened my eyes to the animals side of things, it made me realize that it's not just trees that are being knocked down.

[|This is a video that shows and explains why an Argentinian glacier began a rare winter rupture due to global warming.] This artifact is a video that shows and also explains the environmental issue of the melting glaciers in Argintina. It says that annualy in the summer, because of the hotter climate, glacier walls fall and break apart. But lately, these walls have been falling in mid-winter, pointing to the environmental problem of global warming. For the first time since 1917, Argintina's glaciers have begun a rare winter rupture. Global warming is a constant environmental issue throughout the world, but this video shows actual evidence that it has had a major impact on Argintina.

This is a picture of the Glaciers in Argentina they are increasingly getting smaller and smaller because not just are they falling in breaking now in the summer, but in the winter also. This is an examle of global warming that has effected almost every country in the world and is evident in this picture. In the picture, you can see that the glaciers are very very tiny, so small that the mountains are visible in the backround. If glaciers are that small in the dead of winter, it means that they are melting and definately should not be, even the water looks high from the amount of melted ice. The global warming going on here is having a major effect on Argintina and is evident here in this picture of the melting glaciers.
