W7 T3 WRITING! [INFORMATION REPORT]
Pollution And The Effects On Animals
By Abby Tombs
Did you know that everyday animals are dying because of your rubbish?
Habitat Destruction
Over the last fifty years business begin to grow. Little things like fishing industries, dumping nets into the sea are threatening wildlife. Habitat loss poses the greatest threat to species.
The world's forests, swamps, plains, lakes and other habitats continue to be filled with human waste (clothes, roads, houses, medicine, etc). Without a strong plan to create safe areas for marine life and other endangered species, they will become extinct. Habitat destruction occurs when natural habitats are no longer able to support the species present, resulting in the displacement or destruction of its biodiversity. Examples: include harvesting fossil fuels, deforestation, dredging rivers, bottom trawling, urbanization, filling in wetlands and mowing fields.
There are many causes of deforestation. The WWF reports that half the trees illegally removed from forests are used as fuel. Some other common reasons are: To make more land avilble for housing and urbanization.
The most dramatic impact is a loss of habitat for millions of species. Eighty percent of Earth's land animals and plants live forest, and many cannot survive the deforestation that destroys their homes. Deforestation also drives climate change.
Ocean Rubbish
Everyday when you buy plastic things from the supermarket you are killing animals for example:
- The sea turtles
- Whales
- Dophins
And many more. Last year, a study estimated that around eight million metric tons of our plastic waste enter the oceans from land each year. But where this plastic ends up and what form it takes is a mystery. Most of our waste consists of everyday items such as bottles, wrappers, straws or bags. Just little things like buying plastic wrapped for food can be a risk marine life. More risks for Marine life might be:
- Little in our Oceans
- Containers fall of ships
- Marine life get stuck in the litter
- Litter washes up on the beach.
Climate Change
Chemicals dumped into the streams affect animals, algae in the water. When water in the atmosphere mixes with certain chemicals-particularly sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides emitted mild during the burning of fossil fuels (petrol and diesel)- mild acidic compounds are formed. The acid rain can leach toxic aluminum from the soil, which low levels can stress fish in lake and streams or, at higher contraction kill them outright. Acid rain also weakens trees in forest and contributes to air pollution that can also harm humans. Scientists actively work to understand past and future climate by using observations and theoretical models. A climate record—extending deep into the Earth's past—has been assembled, and continues to be built up, based on geological evidence from borehole temperature profiles, cores removed from deep accumulations of ice, floral and faunal records, glacial and periglacial processes, stable-isotope and other analyses of sediment layers, and records of past sea levels. More recent data are provided by the instrumental record. General circulation models, based on the physical sciences, are often used in theoretical approaches to match past climate data, make future projections, and link causes and effects in climate change. Polar bear habitats are being melted because of the cause of so much climate change. Polar bears are becoming endangered. America's Antarctic could soon open up to a new wave of risky offshore oil and gas drilling.
I hope that you now can see what your rubbish is doing to animals, and the environment. If you want to help little things like taking shorter showers, recycling, picking up rubbish will save Earth. Also ways to help:
