[edit](Compose a detailed peer review here, considering each of the key aspects listed above if it is relevant. Consider the guiding questions, and check out the examples of what feedback looks like.)
Lead:
-Cite last 3 sentences of first paragraph
-I'm not sure if the 3rd and 4th citations apply to the entire final paragraph or just the last sentence but if they just apply to the last sentence then the rest of it needs citations.
-Lead seems concise and a good intro so good job :)
Content:
-relevant and most sources are from recent publications
Tone and Balance:
-neutral content and informational tone with no noticeable biases
Sources:
-Wow you added a ton of sources. Well done.
-7 and 8 are the same source
-Your bibliography page doesn't seem to have all of the ones you added. I don't know if it's missing the ones added when you weren't signed in. I don't know if this is important or not because they are all in the article, but thought I should mention it.
-effects of climate change section needs a lot of citations, and there are still some places that say (citation needed); especially make sure anything related to climate change is cited because some people still think it doesn't exist
-links work
Organization:
-Well organized
-"was beginning to trump field research" maybe choose different word(s)
-"consulting firms hired and controlled by the government." which government?
-"The ground is literally melting away" remove "literally"
-easy to read and understand
Images and Media:
-none added; not sure if any needed; whole article only has 2
Comments:
Thank you for all of your fixes; the original article was pretty bad. There's a couple of small fixes you can make and some citations are still needed, but the content is solid. Good job! :)
