Penguin in danger

In Paul Eccleston’s (2007) article, “Penguin now threatened by global warming,” he explains that the penguins have lost their place to live because of global warming. Global warming causes climate change and overfishing, which is harmful for penguins. Warmer weather condition makes some penguins gone. In addition, the temperature of the sea is higher and sea ice has been melting. Then, some species are dead, especially the prey of penguins. Therefore, penguins that can live in a warmer climate cannot avoid death because they are in deficiency of their feed. They usually eat krill but krill is dying now because of the high temperature of the sea. Nowadays, people try to protect penguins from global warming.

Now, we need to protect penguins before they are exterminated. What we can do for them is we can make them their nest, supply them with food, and try to prevent global warming.

First, we should make the place, which is kept at a low temperature at a specific place. They are losing their home now because glacier is melting now. In fact, they are still fine to stay, but they will not have any places to stay in a short time. So we need to help them as soon as we can. It will be expensive to make something such as that thing, but we should keep every living organism as we do human beings. Perhaps some people have already tried to make them homes, but it could not be done because of cost. So if all people are paid, a little bit, it would be a lot of money and then we could make that for them.

Second, they are in trouble that is worse than losing their home. They usually eat krill, which is similar to shrimp, but the krill is almost dead because of the high temperature of the sea. The krill cannot live in warmer sea, so just 15% of krill is surviving. Unfortunately, penguins are not only becoming homeless but also going to starve. However, if we tried to help them, it could work. Actually, I want to help them but I do not know how do it. Therefore, if someone noticed how to help them, many people who are animal lovers would do that.

Third, now we know that every problem comes from global warming. In addition, global warming comes from human activity actually. It means a lot of living organisms are going to die because of us. Many people do not know whether they make pollution. They need to realize quickly what they are doing wrong. For example, the air pollution comes from many kinds of gas, especially gas from the cars. In this day, almost everyone has their own car instead of using public transportation. We should know that if environment was destroyed, we would not survive anymore.

In conclusion, global warming is serious for not only penguins but also all the living organisms. Now, I am interested in penguins so I am looking for many articles about penguins. Penguin is one of the most endearing symbols of animals, so we need to protect them by figuring out solutions so that penguin can survive. We should not care of just ourselves; we should care about every living organism that we are living together with.
