National Politics

This video that I just finished watching in my opinion it doesn't make sense because Herman Cain didn't even give a speech in the video. Which we would of expect him to talk not his partner. Also what was the message by the partner smoking? Isn't that a bad example? Well this video was just not helpful to pass the message of Herman Cain to become our next president for the United States.

Why is the period of time in which there is practically no sunlight? How does this affect the climate?

There is no sunlight because they are in the Southern part of the planet. The planet is revolving and at some point the Northern is closer to the sun and the Southern is further. So there is no sunlight for a period of time.

How could climate change negatively impact the mating ritual of the Emperor Penguin?

If the climate change would occur in the poles the ice would melt and then the penguins could become extinct. The climate can get warmer and cause the ice to melt.
