World Destruction
Hello I am Cesar Cotrufo and I am writing about the main things that people are doing which could destroy our planet: Air pollution Like people, animals are impacted by the effect of dirty air, and without animals the food chain is dangerously compromised. In polluted areas bees struggle to find their food sources, and without the bees’ pollinating services our food production would collapse. Just something to think about. Overfishing This is destroying our oceans by removing animals in the food chain and dumping thousands of nets and other horrible plastics that the animals and sea creatures are eating and choking on, causing sealife to be massively depleted . Climate change This has caused countless people to lose their lives and also has destroyed millions of homes. Many more places will become uninhabitable soon. The ice caps are melting, the sea levels are rising and the earth is warming. Light pollution Artificial light from towns and cities can disrupt ecosystems by making newly hatched turtles move towards the towns rather than the sea. It is bad for human health as it disrupts our sleep and prevents us from enjoying the night sky. And it is a wasteful use of energy. Overpopulation Our small planet is struggling to be populated by 8.7 billion people and millions of animals that are still being poached and slaughtered illegally. If anything, we should have more animals by ratio instead of countless humans being at the top of every food chain that we know of. Plastic pollution There might be more plastic in the ocean than fish by 2026.Yep you read that right. If we don’t change our overuse and trash systems soon, we’ll have so much plastic; we have plastic in our sushi or fish if we have these meals as an option!
