Oral Blog Entry 5 Domestic News Headlines

I heard the story on the record of the Morning Report from National Radio on Monday April 30th

"The paper also reports that climate change experts and environmentalists will clash over proposals to fight global warming."

Here are three pronunciation features which I noticed.
1. consonant to vowel linking - "...and_environmentalists..."
2. weak pronunciation - "...clash over proposals..."
3. weak pronunciation - "...to fight global warming."
