Go Green!

Do you listen to what Trump says about climate change? Well, if you do, don't. This essay will (I hope) convince you to go green and worry about the fate of our Earth.


Why should we go green? You may ask. Because the fate of the place you live in depends on it. The earth will be around forever. Why should we stress about it? Because it won't be. It'll be gone soon if this continues. 
Climate change is bad for animals. One way this is true is that Google said: "In 2024, the Arctic will have an ice-less summer." Do you know how bad that is? Polar bears and other creatures that live in the Arctic are used to FREEZING cold temperatures. In the heat of no ice, some animals might literally burn or melt!!! This is because those animals have a thick layer of fur covering their outer bodies, and animals like whales and walruses have a layer of fat called blubber to keep them extra warm. Also, some animals use snow as a hiding area, by digging a hole and hiding in it. Without the snow, there would be nowhere to hide. Actually, without the snow, there might not even BE an Arctic! 
  Another way that climate change is bad for animals is that it's destroying their habitats. This is happening for two reasons. One is because the Amazon Rainforest is burning up. The Amazon Rainforest is great for many reasons. One is it gives off a lot of oxygen because there are so many trees. Two is because it's a great ecosystem for animals to live. There are many different types of animals that live in the Amazon Rainforest and River. if it burns up, there is no place for the animals of the area to go! The people of Brazil want to do something but their leader won't let them. The G7 tried to give Brazil 2 million dollars to help, but the leader said no. "Why are they trying to give Brazil money? I know how to govern my own country!" If the entire Amazon Rainforest burns up, That would be absolutely HORRIBLE!!
But climate change doesn't just affect animals, it affects humans as well. One way this is true is because one aspect of climate change is global warming. It gets hotter in some places and cooler in others. Pollution is one way that global warming happens. But this pollution is REALLY bad for everyone. For the living organisms that breathe oxygen, the air is getting polluted. Actually, making 1 or half a pound of beef is equivalent to driving 55 cars for one mile!!! So humans need to become vegetarians. And all this gunk isn't just happening in the air. It's going into the sea! There is a floating island of trash the size of Texas! And it's still growing! Whenever your trash goes into landfills, most of it goes into the sea. So humans need to start RECYCLING a lot more. Even if just one person does these things, it can make a huge difference. Thanks for reading.
