How the environment is being affected by climate change

WALT: In room 4, we had to write explanations with different topics. I wrote mine about climate change.

How the environment is being affected by climate change

Climate change is everywhere, animal habitat, air, water and farmland. Us humans have been on here for 200,000 years and we did not think to help or change something? Today I’m telling you why the environment is being affected by climate change.

Yeah, sure we do have people and kids fighting for climate change. Greta Thunberg, Hindou Oumarou Ibrahim, Rhiana Gunn-Wright and more. “You weren’t going to solve the problem with just solar panels” says Rhiana Gunn-Wright. 

Scientist found that 2015 to 2018 were the hottest years recorded. We all know that our ice is melting because of the heat. The Cryosphere-the ice on earth is melting. Think of an ice pack as the ice on earth. The sun or heat melts the ice pack. Just like how global warming and climate change is melting the ice.

The weather is getting very extreme. Hurricanes like Hurricane Katrina, Hurricane Irma and Hurricane Dorian. These hurricanes are and have been ruining houses, buildings, homes and people's lives. 

Humans and animals habitats are getting ruined due to climate change. Polar bears and other ice animals are dying, from their homes melting or breaking from climate change. Recently 80 percent of The Amazon Forest has burnt down. The amazon forest gives 20 percent of the world's oxygen. People lived there and it was home to many species of animals.

We know our earth is dying, but little changes in your routine can help. Drive and fly less, eat less meat, reuse electricity, save water and look after our planet.
