Creating Extinction
With our bad habits


There are countless animals and other living things suffering from global warming.  Polar bears are highly threatened by melting ice due to our carelessness and unawareness.  With their homes melting away quickly, polar bears are being forced to move to warmer climate so that they are able to go to bed and wake up the next day on solid land.  If we keep being as careless as we are right now, Polar bears will become extinct very soon.  This is because polar bears cannot survive just any where, they can only live in very cold, icy climates.  When the ice runs out, polar bears and countless other amazing species of living things will become extinct in the wild.

Put some posters around your neighborhood to raise awareness:

Pictures of the Day! My personal favorite- the hedgehog!  I know that I have never posted somethings like this, but I thought that you might like to just look at some pictures relevant to other posts and topics. Here are some endangered species that are endangered because of our careless actions. When we pollute, adorable endangered animals like these die. :( Some ways that you can protect these endangered animals are: 1. Use less energy which contributes to global warming 2. Drive Less to conserve our environment 3. Create a compost pile to reduce food waste 4. Recycle and Reuse- don't use landfills 5. Eat organic and don't spray herbicides and pesticides because of water pollution.

The Hole in Our Ozone Remember that ozone hole that forms above Antarctica every year? Well, according to NASA, this hole is slowly shrinking every, this year's smaller size due to the usual variations of Antarctic weather conditions. In 2006, the ozone hole had reached a record size, more than 11 million square miles. Ozone is a gas made up of three oxygen atoms (O 3 ). It occurs naturally in small (trace) amounts in the upper atmosphere (the stratosphere). Ozone protects life on Earth from the Sun’s ultraviolet (UV) radiation. In the lower atmosphere (the troposphere) near the Earth’s surface, ozone is created by chemical reactions between air pollutants from vehicle exhaust, gasoline vapors, and other emissions. At ground level, high concentrations of ozone are toxic to people and plants. Scientists don't expect it to be completely healed until 2065, but if we do our part, we could probably speed up the process. "With ozone depletion, mankind has demonstr...
