“Wildlife Conservation Deforestation, and Global Warming,”


Today, it feels like we have all these problems in the world. Though it’s important to deal with terrorists and mercury poisoning, we need to have a world to have problems in. In reverence of Earth Day and Earth Week, here are some articles to explain and give advice about the most important problem today: keeping our Earth healthy!

Wildlife Conservation

Since people evolved on this Earth, we’ve been fascinated by animals. And also since people arrived, animals have been going extinct. There are various reasons for this but one of the most prominent today is wildlife conservation. As the population grows, humans need more space to live and work in. The problem is that we are moving into the territory of the animals and they are forced to move elsewhere. Sometimes they can’t adapt to the new environment and die, are killed by the native species of the area, or kill off the native species and upset the natural balance. Though it seems like there is no hope for this problem, here’s what you can do to help. You can donate money to organizations such as Save the Rainforest of the Defenders of Wilderness or start your own program to help. Writing letters to your representatives in Congress to stop building so many new houses in the woods and keeping buildings compact are another good way to help. Have your friends join you in the effort so you all can make a difference. The animals can’t speak up for themselves so they need out help to survive and keep their homes.
