Global Warming is one of the most complex issues world leaders have to deal with. World leaders have concluded that there are two sides to the global warming issue. The scientific issue is that the burning of fossil fuels and forests is what mostly contributes to the global warming issue. The technological, economical, and political issue are building up, not getting easier, and world leaders are not agreeing on how to approach the issue. World leaders have come together to work out the complicated issues of global warming. They agree that small steps should be taken to have a wider result and effect, but they disagree on whether poor countries or rich countries have the pay the most for the global warming issue. The author of the article is not bias at all. He is just stating the facts that world leaders are dealing with concerning global warming. He is neutral of which country's side he takes and which methods he thinks will work the best. The source is pro-environmental.
