                                      Climate Change
The article I read was about the affects on ocean animals from drastic climate changes.The article mostly addressed animals who live in cold climates such as seals,penguins,whales,and polar bears. Species of        Krill,plankton, and other creatures at the bottom of the food chain,live on ice bergs under the water's surface. These ice bergs are continuing to melt away because of high temperatures. The krill and plankton die along with the icebergs,  leaving the mammals without a source of food and resting spot.
    There are some people who say that the earth is at the point of no return,that we have done too much damage already. I believe that if we all really wanted to make a change, we could. Today is earth day,everyone should take pride in the beautiful earth that we are so fortunate to live on instead of watching it slowly deteriorate before our very eyes.
  Do you belive that the earth is at a point of no return?
Do you believe that Global warming is even occurring? Why or Why not?
