  • Yes we should protect the animals some of animals are nearly going to be extinct. Whe should save them and take care off them. I love animals they are also beauty of this world. We should treat animals in good way and dont hurt them they are also living organisms they have families and they have feelings for each other.

    1. Hi Humble_Date - it's a real problem that some animals are close to extinction. Could you give an example of an animal that risks extinction as a result of climate change?

    2. I agree with you because the animal are awesome

    3. Very true many many animals are dying due to the lack of food and water and there habitats are getting destroyed and it makes it really hard for them to find a new home and there family has to split up because there is no room in a new habitat and the animals are very friendly and what they are facing right now is very hard for them since they cant really make a difference to what is happening and they are very devastated so I agree

  • There is also a big probelm of food for the dogs and cats which are living in streets. We should feed them little bit, we will not get short of money if we will feed them little bit. We have to think about them

  • We can save animals by following steps
    * Spray and neuter: Each year millions of cats and dogs are put to death in animal shelters. By spraying and neutering eases the overpopulation probelm.
    * Take action: this is a very important point , dont ignore stray animals on the street,where they can cause some dangerous disease, starvation or most important "HUMAN CRUELTY" we should report the animal centre for a lost animal, where he will get some better food and entertainment.

    1. We can adopt street cats and dogs instead of placing them in shelters, and this reduces the number of homeless animals in the country, and this reduces diseases, as we know that most diseases are transmitted from animals, so we can also clean street animals and offer them for adoption for free

  • We should protect animals intead of killing them. Dont hunt those animals which are in less quantity or going to be extinct and do not destroy there habitate for no reason. This will cause serious damage to the animals lives and they will leave the area. This need serious attention.

  • I agree animals are getting affected due to climatic change . Animals are not like humans , they vary from different way of survival . All animals are directly or indirectly depend on plants . Climate change has produced a number of threats to wildlife throughout our parks . Rising temperatures lower many species survival rates due to changes that lead food and many more . For example : Polar Bear need sea ice to hunt seals which is their main source of food as well as to move across the large home range they nee for foraging habitat . Polar bears aren't alone in feeling the effects of shrinking sea ice. Walruses and other Arctic species are facing similar challenges as summer sea ice continues to retreat. Hence , our animals are getting affected due to climate change

    1. Hi Protective_Strategy - polar bears are a good example of an animal affected by climate change. How would you convince someone to help protect the polar bear?

  • Climate change is affecting every living organism on this planet. The most endangered are some rare species of animals like Tiger, Snow Leopard, Polar Bear, Giant Panda etc. I’m going to explain how the Tiger is affected. Tigers are found in amazingly diverse habitats: rain forests, grasslands, savannas and even mangrove swamps. They are usually found in North Korea, China, India and Southeast Asia.
    However, rising sea levels caused by climate change threaten to wipe out the last remaining habitats of this tiger population. According to a WWF study, without mitigation efforts, projected sea-level rise, about a foot by 2070, could destroy nearly the entire Sundarbans(A national park in West Bengal, India) tiger habitat.
    There are numerous ways to protect the species, we just need to enforce them strictly. For example: In India, Project Tiger was launched in 1973 by the government to preserve tigers. Since then, a lot of National Parks have been constructed, hunting and poaching has been banned, etc. Other nations can also follow methods to save tigers:
    • People should reduce the usage of forest products, it destroys their natural habitat.
    • Water bodies should not be polluted, it is a major reason for the rising sea level.
    • Awareness should be spread amongst people.
    • Carbon emissions should be reduced around the globe, it not only affects humans, but animals too.

    1. Hi Analytical_Explanation - it's sad to hear about the threats facing tigers. Why do you think we should save the tiger?

      1. Thank you for taking the time to reply to my comment. @Alice
        Tigers are a part of endangered species, and I think it is important to save them as they are a part of the Ecosystem and food chain. If the tigers species comes to an end, It would indirectly affect us humans as we depend on a healthy ecosystem to purify our environment. Also, in India tigers are a symbol of magnificence, power, beauty and fierceness and have been associated with bravery and valor. We believe in equality and justice for all living beings.

  • From an insignificant bacteria to polar bear, everyone is affected by climate change. If there's variation in climate and temperature there surely will be changes around us. If global warming increases, the temperature will rise leading to melting of glaciers which is harmful for polar animals. On the other hand, ice age is equally dangerous. Street animals, tigers, lions, elephants all will suffer.
    If i could present to world leaders at COP27 about animals I would show them the brutal truth, that some animals are on the verge of getting extinct because of human activities. Activities like deforestation, not dumping waste properly, air pollution and so on.
    We all need to take steps on our levels then only we can save the animals and our ecosystem.

  • I would like to see this in a different light, I would like to talk about an animal that is already affected by the climate change. We should be asking ourselves why animals are affected and what we can do to help them out. The Bramble Cay melomys is an animal that got extinct, because of human-caused climate change. It lived on lived a tiny sand island in the Torres Strait, near the coast of Papua New Guinea. so, as my animal I would like to say some reasons I got extinct. Home or habitat endangerment, Pollution, overfishing and climate change all contribute to habitat loss which have been a real problem. The issues is that the world is changing, and these animals don't know how to change with it. For this problem I think scientists should study habitats and any changes in them, this might be useful because we could mirror the effect artificially and create a better and more conducive environment for the endangered species. The species are small which doesn't exactly make it better for them to cope. We all do different thing that endanger animals we poach them, and all for what to make clothes bags and shoes thing that destroy the earth even more, we should try to be more considerate and always remember that climate change can affect us too.

    1. I disagree because... One may not understand what a habitat is

      1. It is basically a home, a place that organisms adapt to in order to survive.

    2. I agree because of the insects we do not see in my country like the butterflies. In my country we do see zero butterflies around us, butterflies are very beautiful the are attracted to different types of flowers and they also have economic importance to the world like they are valuable pollinators, and if they go extinct the impact will be felt higher up and can affect the entire ecosystem. Because butterflies are so sensitive to habitat and climate change, scientists are monitoring them as one way of observing the wider effects of habitat fragmentation and climate change. My advice to my country is that we start planting more trees and flowers to attract the pollinators for our and their benefit.

  • Climate change affects marine life significantly, and leads to the death of more gray whales. During the summer, gray whales depend on nutrition from marine life, but when sea ice melts due to heat waves and global warming, an imbalance occurs in the food web resulting in fewer food for whales. gray tooBecause of an unprecedented sea heat wave off the coast of America, the whales were forced to move away from their homes and found tangled in fishing equipment, and the disaster occurred.
    Why should whales be protected?
    The whale provides nutrients to the phytoplankton Phytoplankton captures large amounts of carbon dioxide and turns it into energy, removing carbon from human emissions from the atmosphere. When other marine animals eat phytoplankton, such as whales, the carbon continues to pass through the food web, and remainsOutside the atmosphere does not contribute to global warming.
    Whales accumulate carbon in their bodies during their long lives, some of which extend to 200 years. And when it dies, it sinks to the bottom of the ocean, taking the carbon with it.
    And whales can be protected by protecting forests because they help reduce global warming
    Provide compensation to those who incur significant costs as a result of protecting whales. For example, shipping companies can be compensated for the cost of shipping methods that have been changed to reduce the risk of collisions with whales
    Global climate change has led to a decline in the phytoplankton that form the basis of the marine food chain in the oceans. A way must be found to increase the number of phytoplankton.

    1. I agree with you .every single animal has the right to live in it special environment.
      I suggest associations with the care to protect grey whale should be established.
      People all over the work should be acknowledged with the daner of the grey whales extinction.

  • The animal I will be choosing is the polar bear because the polar bear is affecting by the climate change due to some human activities, the Arctic is warming about twice as fast as the global average, causing the ice that polar bears depend on to melt away. Loss of sea ice also threatens the bear's main prey, seals, which need the ice to raise their young. There are several human threats endangering polar bear populations; over harvesting, human development and loss of sea ice due to climate change are all reducing the bear's numbers and habitat. If I were to be part of the COP27 I would have suggested that we live a More Eco-Friendly Lifestyle. This is one of the easiest things we can do to help save the Polar Bears are; Recycle Recycle Recycle, join WWF's Action Center and can also become vegans to save the polar bears. The thing that we do not understand is that the artic melting affects us all, I need to be heard this is really serious to be honest, if all the ice in the artic melts let me give you all a preview of what would happen. Countries would literally disappear, Florida will disappear along with most of Denmark Bangladesh and most small island countries, all the countries I mentioned also have endangered species in them. According to coolantarcita.com even countries like US would loose a significant part of their land, also frozen ice does not have the same ratio as melted ice, melted ice is more, sea levels would rise to more than over 70% . WE WOULD ALL BE AFFECTED, NOT JUST THE ANIMALS, NOT JUST THE PEOPLE THAT STAY IN THE NORTH POLE ''EVERYONE'' would be. It can also lead to us having more refugees I mean just because we do not hear about the North Pole does not mean people do not live there, imagine igloos melting away these are just few of the problems that would happen if the melting away of the North Pole's ice is not taken seriously, so we have to rise up and care, not just for ourselves but for the endangered species also.

  • I want to talk about how the Polar bear is being affected by climate change but there is a twist. I will be taking it from the point of view of the polar bear.

    Hi, my name is Charles and I am a polar bear. My species is currently one of the species of animals nearing extinction. Some human scientists have estimated that between 2050 and 2100 my species would have gone extinct. Things have traveled down south for us as a result of climate change. The loss of our sea ice habitat is the biggest threat to our survival right now. Many have died as a result. Some of our people have also died as a result of toxic pollution to our food. The activities of people exploring for oil have also led to many animals of my species dying. I have lost many of my friends and even my siblings. There are only a few of us left. Those of us left are really suffering. I plead with you humans to help us to solve this problem. We might not be able to hold on for much longer if this keeps on. We beg of you humans to unite and stop climate change so that my species will be saved.

  • One of the animals that is affected by climate change is the American Pika. American pikas are suffering because climate change has brought about the increase in temperature to their mountain habitats. Pikas have already disappeared from parts of their natural habitat in Oregon and Nevada. Some researchers say that the American pika is at a high risk of extinction because of climate change. there are only abut 1000 pikas left worlwide and if nothing is done about it, the specie would have gone extinct by the end of the century.

    1. I didn't know about this animal!

  • We can make artificial icebergs out of recycled plastic for polar bears, seals, sea lions, walruses, etc. These animals don't need to be cold to survive. They need somewhere to stop and rest, get food, somewhere to be. Please spread this idea.... Let's help these animals.

  • reducing your carbon footprint and other sources of pollution and holding companies, organizations and governments responsible for their side of the deal are so very important but that won't be enough. We need a lot more concrete and comprehensive plans for dealing with different ecosystems. That is partly worked on by researchers and wild-life organizations but it is going to slow... We have to find sustainable ways of tapping into natural resources without intruding and hurting the local ecosystems to much. We need to make win-win situations for local populations to deal with wildlife they encounter in ways that protect the animals and the people's incomes. We need to make less resource-intensive economies with less consumption, less waste, all in a closed economic cycle, with biodiverse yet still effective pollution from the environment. We need good strategies and plans for how we are going to securely give the ecosystems and species the chance to bounce back and do better, how we are going to reintroduce species into the wild and how we are going to make sure that what habitats are left will stay and expand to previous boundaries.
    We got a lot to do so we better start working!

  • The following justifies my belief that people ought to assist animals:

    Even animals have a life. They too experience hurt and pain, and they have the

    right to survive.

    We earn their love and trust by providing for them. They begin to live fearlessly since the majority of them believe that people will harm them in some way. Animals cannot talk, so they are occasionally helpless. We ought to be aware of their needs and provide for them appropriately. Animals should be helped in the same way that we aid people. They are not less than As for me, I never pass up the chance to assist creatures in need. Every time I give them food or save their lives, I feel incredibly joyful.

  • By defending animals , we defend ourselves . Simple concepts allow us to accomplish tasks as humans . You can get in touch with a few NGOs. There , you can volunteer to assist the staff with various chores . If you can't get along with them. Do only one thing . There are many stray dogs that you will encounter , if you can take care of one or two of them, that would be wonderful . However, taking care of them does not mean that you must keep them inside your home. You can give them food, transport them to the doctor if they're sick, and make sure you can uplift others while you assist them. Children in particular , despite having pure hearts , occasionally harm animals because they lack the skills to do so.

  • I would like to see this in a different light, I would like to talk about an animal that is already affected by the climate change. We should be asking ourselves why animals are affected and what we can do to help them out. The Bramble Cay melomys is an animal that got extinct, because of human-caused climate change.

  • I have always been a lover of animals, whether wild or tamed. I feel the need to talk about all kinds of endangered species of animals because only raising the issue of one, won't do justice to the remainder. No matter how much we may consider animals as irrelevant or remain ignorant of their importance, they just like, us are living things deserving, just as we do, of their habitat which is earth. Why should we let our lifestyles and actions affect innocent creatures? We, humans, created this issue of climate change and we should fix it. Every animal is important because it is a part of the ecosystem. We should do our part in ensuring that no more lives are lost in this cause.

  • From my point of view climate change did not just happen, man is the cell factor of climate change. Human activities have caused climate change which has affected the whole world including animals. Some human activities such as cutting down of trees has caused the unavailability of some animals. Personally I do not see this as a cause of climate change, I see it as a cause of human activities.

  • We should try and eat more cows because when they burp it brings methaid into the atmosphere which is a bad greenhouse gas and produces carbon dioxide which is bad for humans to breath in.

    1. But if we eat more cows, won't farmers breed more of them - and increase the methane?

    2. I disagree because if you eat one cow it doesn't really make a difference and farmers will just breed more cows. Also cows have calves (baby cows) and we cant just keep eating cows because its bad for our health and like i said every time you eat a cow more and more will come.

  • The animal that I will choose is the rabbit, because the rabbit is affected by climate change, that is, when the temperature rises, it will die, and this is certain and known about a lot, but the most important question is how to protect rabbits from denying their existence. In anticipation of anything that might happen in the future

  • Animals have been damaged by pollution and hunting, and some have become extinct due to climate change, overfishing, and environmental pollution. This data has been used to link the decline in sex ratios for sea turtles in the northeastern Caribbean Sea, which have become extinct due to water pollution. There are also those on the verge of extinction, such as kangaroos and koalas, due to the fires that occurred in Australia.
    There are many animals on the verge of extinction, so we must work to protect them, for example, establishing natural reserves according to how the animals live so that they can adapt to the conditions and prevent hunting and not cause environmental pollution. If the animals become extinct, the environmental balance will be disturbed

  • I will talk about the tongue of the panda to explain the extent to which the panda is affected by human activities and also climate change, and I will talk about the suffering of the panda and the dangers and extinction it suffers from
    Welcome......
    My name is Pando. I belong to a type of animal, the panda. I am considered one of the most beautiful and attractive animals, which gives my body more beauty, which is the black and white color. Those who hunt me a lot and trade in me, and they are the ones who emit pollutants and diseases, and their human activities also have a role in that, and there is no doubt in changing the climate that it has a role in that as well. Don't use artificial intelligence for example to use drones to watch me from afar without catching me.
    Because you'll never see me again, I'm in danger of extinction.

  • The polar bear has a fur that protects it from extreme cold and snow, and it has a white color that protects it from the danger of poachers. Climate changes reduce the polar bear population as the polar bear needs ice to get its food.
    We can protect it from the danger of extinction, for example, by providing it with a cold environment, preserving the ice, and not exposing its places to global warming.

  • touched Animals in the climate are a natural matter, and all measures and measures must be taken to reduce them. In the Gaza Strip, farmers suffer, especially poultry farms. From the death of large quantities of poultry. In my intense summer. And the cold winter. So prepare the farms. Electronic cultivators that adjust the temperature. In the summer and winter seasons. In proportion to the natural climate. chicken. Thus, production increases. It is not affected. Chicken farms with the death of large numbers of them. So in turn. leads to savings. Citizen chicken. throughout the year.

  • The animal I have chosen is a polar bear and they are at high risk as they live on ice, but all of the gas we humans use has warmed the ice, causing it to melt away. That means the white, fluffy polar bears will have no home which could mean that they could get extinct like other animals who lives in the same habitat. To prevent this, we can first buy an electric car instead of a diesel/petrol car. Secondly, we can turn off gadgets like a stereo when we are not using them and finally use an energy-saving light. This won't just save animals but will save people well.

    1. I agree because fuel can pollute the atmosphere damage the way plants live as well as polar bears

    2. I strongly believe what u said becaust animals like that and others that live in ice region cant survive long due to the activities of man and we could hel animals like that bu stopping of waste and the realise of chemicals in industries because it is one of the agent that causea the melting of the ice region so i believ the stopping of it will lead to the survival of polar bears and others animals.

  • I live a city, some days I would see bees flying around our garage and birds always on our garage floor eating the leftover food of my dogs.
    When bees and birds see greens they fly to you.
    We have replanted trees in our yard, even if it's a small space it will help us in the future. I encourage everyone to plant on their backyard whether it's a garden plant or a tree. Fill your surroundings with greens.

    1. That's so thoughtful of you successful_horse. Planting trees and vegetation is a great idea. The habitat of animals is slowly disappearing due to urbanization and industrialization so we need to act fast to create more habitable places for animals or else they will get extinct. It is our fault climate is changing and are losing their habitat so the least we can do is to create more places where they can inhabit even if it is in our backyards!

      Another animal that is going extinct is the The Bramble Cay melomys. The Bramble Cay melomys inhabited a tiny sand island in the Torres Strait, near the coast of Papua New Guinea. It got extinct due to Pollution, overfishing, effects associated with rise in sea levels and climate change. The world is taking a turn for the worse because of problems like climate change. The world is no longer favorable for the survival of some animals. This animals do not know how to change with the world, hence, they are dying off. It is our responsibility to help them survive in any little way we can.

      We can help the Bamble Cay melomys by making room for species to move inland(this is to reduce the effects of rise in sea levels on the animals). We can make campaigns to raise awareness about what is happening to these animals so that more people can be aware and try to help them. Let us work together "Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much."

  • The reality of societies and the difficult challenge faced by young people have diminished their political participation and their role in making center. The strength of youth and the absolute belief that they are the key to change and the solid foundation for building advancing society required us to focus on them and give them an opportunity to change and advance society, and this cannot be done without looking at their situation, believing in their abilities, and enhancing their participation in decision _making centers to reach the real and required change.

  • Protecting Animals from Climate Change takes us to the Ice Age movie, when mammoths and tigers, and those with them, tried to move to a safer place due to icy cyclones and climate change... Climate change has a major direct impact on animals because it creates new animals or leads to extinction Each species has its own reaction to climate change, from animals that adapt, migrate or will die.... Climate change has a major impact on the extinction of one or more animal species, regardless of which animal diseases will spread.... Studies also confirm that the mammoth extinction was caused by climate change, not humans. There is also the story of the polar film ( arctic tale) about how climate change is affecting life in the Arctic and polar bears are affected..... The most endangered animals are pandas, elephants, blue whales, tigers, and penguins.... Climate change is usually natural or perhaps due to human misconduct..... There are a lot of movies that talk about that and how to deal with these changes, like before the Flood and the day after tomorrow, and The Inconvenient Truth... One of the most interesting was the film 2040, which focused on solving the problem rather than the problem itself and tapping new technology and energy to fight it.... THERE ARE MANY SOLUTIONS TO THIS PROBLEM, ONE OF THEM IS TRANSFORMING TRANSPORTATION TO REDUCE GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS... CONTROLLING ENERGY, USING SOLAR PANELS.... Modifying the diet.... We don't waste food. Tree planting and lots of solutions

  • Climate change is very dangerous,not only for humans but also animals,For example:Red pandas
    As red pandas live with in a very narrow temperature range and as the temperature rises hotter each year,These animals would need to move to higher elevations to adapt.Only 10,000 red pandas are left in the whole world so this can mean that red pandas will be extinct by 2024.If I had a chance to present in Cop27 I would say that we should plant more trees and avoid deforestation as 7,000 out of 10,000 red pandas die out
    each year due to deforestation.

  • I think we should definitely start thinking about animals and their needs before the extinct animals are sweet and amazing i honestly love animals and i wish i could save them all like polar bears those poor animals are suffering right now fighting for their lives just to stay awake. we need to start thinking about them the same way we think about ourselves, they are also living organisms that has a life families and feelings and we need to treat them in a good way

  • Moutain Gorillas only have a population of 1,063,which is very less.The population of Moutain Gorillas first started decreasing,In the war of Rwanda in the early 1990s and years of cilvil unrest in the Democtratic Republic of Congo into the region around the Virunga Moutains parks that are almost home to more then the half population of Moutain Gorillas,leading to poaching and destruction of gorilla habitat.Moutain Gorillas mostly die out beacause of Habitat Loss. As humans have moved in near the mountain gorillas,over the years they have cleared some land for thier agricultures and livestock,Even the land within protected areas are not safe anymore.this animal will probabIly be exctint by 2023.If I had a chance to present in Cop27 I would say that There are many ways through you could save these Gorillas, some of them are;1.Trekking the Gorillas.2.Creating a awareness.3.Avoid Trekking Gorillas when you're Sick.4.Support the Local communities.

  • I chose polar bears because they are the ones who suffer most from climate changes, global warming, and high temperature, which leads to melting of ice, which makes fish migrate from their place to a colder place, and this causes a problem for polar bears because they will not find anything to eat and may cause their extinction, and all this Because of man and his exaggeration in the use of things that cause pollution to the atmosphere, such as: his use of gasoline or oil in cars and factories, and because of the small number of trees because they cut them down to use them in their daily lives, and this reduces the percentage of oxygen in the atmosphere, which increases the percentage of carbon dioxide and causes global warming And the ice melts. In order to prevent this from happening, man can use natural resources such as: sun, wind, water. We also have to prevent the cutting of trees in order to preserve the stability of the environment.

  • I want to ask some questions to an expert / if we built a zoo and brought all kinds of animals on the globe (domestic, predatory, affected by climate change, .....) what would you do to ensure a life for them

    1. I disagree because... not all animals can adapt to some weather conditions.

  • We should protect animals intead of killing them. Dont hunt those animals which are in less quantity or going to be extinct and do not destroy there habitate for no reason. This will cause serious damage to the animals lives and they will leave the area. This need serious attention.

  • I agree animals are getting affected due to climatic change . Animals are not like humans , they vary from different way of survival . All animals are directly or indirectly depend on plants . Climate change has produced a number of threats to wildlife throughout our parks . Rising temperatures lower many species survival rates due to changes that lead food and many more . For example : Polar Bear need sea ice to hunt seals which is their main source of food as well as to move across the large home range they nee for foraging habitat . Polar bears aren't alone in feeling the effects of shrinking sea ice. Walruses and other Arctic species are facing similar challenges as summer sea ice continues to retreat. Hence , our animals are getting affected due to climate change

  • The polar bear is an endangered animal and is in a very dangerous condition, as polar bears spend most of their time on floating ice in the Arctic Ocean, hunting seals and penguins, and as these animals decrease in number, the daily routine of food for the polar bear becomes increasingly unstable instead of thatGlobal warming began to melt the poles, which left the polar bear in a state of loss, as the pole is its only home and it cannot live without it.


    From here, we have to develop plans to reduce global warming, such as planting trees, carrying out cleaning campaigns, and encouraging the community to use environmentally friendly energy methods to mitigate the greatest amount of damage.
    “One hand does not clap.” We must cooperate to save these creatures

    1. Thanks for this thoughtful answer aware_leaves. What do you see as the barriers to the cooperation you mention?

      1. I said that one hand does not clap, so we have to cooperate together, as one person cannot change the world, but when we start with a small group that expands day after day, we will reach our goal, which is to save these creatures by reducing the level of global warming, and all this through some of the plans that I have developed and others

  • climate change is causing serious issues like extinction of animals like koala,monarach butterfly,ringed seal,polar bears and a lot are being threatend due to human activities such as global warming which has adversely affected the the world.due to global warming glaciers are melting and due to this animals like polar bears,seals and penguins are dying and their population is decreasing day by day.
    if i would be given a chance in cop27about animals i would say that animals have been a part of our history like LAIKE A DOG she wass the the first animal to travel in space,zarafa was the first girrafe that was seen in europe i would say that animals are part of our society.
    i also used to see sparrows and birds in my backyard since we have cut our trees in the backyard they have gone but now me and my father again planted trees and the sparrows and other birds are coming towards trees. i also wanna say that due to pesticides,heavy fertilizers the sparrows are dying we must also not use pesticides too much.instead i would also say that every house in a city or a village must have a small backyard in which one could plant vegetables aND fruits according to his need

  • Polar bears are going extinct because of climate change.The polar ice caps are melting from the heat so polar bears have to swim and they can’t swim for ever. We can help by reducing the amount of electricity we use so polar bears don’t go extinct.

    1. I agree because... this is because of global warming and the temperature rise in the world.

  • Koalas are effected by climate change because of wild forest fires because it destroys their home and can kill their species.Cop 27 could stop people from polluting the atmosphere which would cause less forest fires.

  • Polar bears are impacted by climate change because their home is melting away. The heat that climate change is creating is melting the icecaps were polar bears thrive, but no one is doing anything about this. I think world leaders
    should include this big problem at Cop 27. My idea is world leaders could try to stop plastic pollution in their country. I hope world leaders think about this at Cop 27.

  • climate change is unexceptable because polar bears are dying because of us my question for you is do you feel gulity because this is are fault because we are burning fossil fuels and thats making are planet hotter and hotter which is making the artic hotter which means the ice is melting quicker and polar bears have no wear to have cubs and take shelter and they have to end up swimming 700kl which is a lot of effort just to find land i hope you consider this

    thank you for reading this [:

  • Some animals might adapt to climatic change or move somewhere else. But some can't do so. Climatic change not only affect animals but also plants and humans.

    Now we can come to our topic, Animals are most affected due to climate change. Polar bear lives in snowy areas. Due to global warming, The Arctic is warming which leads to melt of ice. This affects the growth.
    The habitat of Polar bear is gradually decreasing.

    The animals can be protected by the following ways:
    1. Do not cut down trees and start to plant the trees.
    2. Recycling.
    3. Reduced usage of vehicles.
    4. Use eco-friendly products.

  • Animals have the right to be protected from the cruelty of human beings.
    Though lots of wild dogs running along our streets at night threatening people , but they are so hungry and looks for food.So they are not our enemies,but just victims of hunger.
    I suggest the government and rich people should work together to establish suitable shelters for those homeless dogs

  • Animals: they are part of the beauty of this universe, which is full of adventures and ancient aesthetic colors. So why not preserve the existence of these animals? Do we not know that when we neglect it, we have neglected a part of this simple life?
    For example, goats or cows can take care of the presence of these animals by providing them with comfortable places, keeping predators away from these animals so that they are not eaten by predators, feeding and watering them well, and providing them with pastures to ensure that their food runs well.
    We benefit from those animals or other animals that we can raise in homes in food (from their meat), drink (from their milk) and in clothing (from their skins).
    One must be careful in raising these animals, because when we do not know something important about these animals and their preference over us, we will face a severe punishment in the end, and the damage will come back to us.

  • Climate is a natural change that occurs in nature, but recently it has changed dramatically and noticeably, which affected the change significantly and noticeably, which affected the climate on animals greatly because it is responsible for new organisms or their extinction, and I will talk today about the animals that were greatly affected, which is the Arctic fox, which is A small fox native to the North Pole and has sharp hearing powers and can dig like dogs, and this animal is not threatened with extinction except in the Scandinavian countries, so its numbers are hundreds, not thousands.
    Now I will say my word to world leaders about this animal:
    This rare little creature is white in winter, brown in summer, beautiful in appearance, known for its luxurious fur. Who is responsible for this great blessing? Shouldn't we preserve and take care of it?
    He left one of the most valuable treasures on earth like this, without any care?
    You will ask me that it is beautiful, but it is of no use? But I tell you that this animal feeds on leftovers and even the excrement of large predators.
    And I conclude by not only this animal but many, many animals, but I spoke about one of them.
    I hope that we will all find a solution to save this animal and other animals.

  • Animals suffer a lot because of global warming, and some of them have become extinct, such as the Staghorn coral. This type that builds coral reefs is considered among the animals that face extinction and its dangers, due to several reasons such as coral bleaching and ocean acidification. And the rise in water temperature, unsustainable fishing, pollution and diseases...... Also, animals on the verge of extinction, such as green turtles, which are sensitive to climate changes in temperatures caused by us humans, and since their young depend on the temperature of the sand that It lays its eggs, climate change and global warming play a role in this. Therefore, we must work to protect these animals and ourselves by not using diesel excessively, and using tools that depend on renewable energy.

  • In my opinion Animal whose survival is at stake because of ecological disturbances is Giant Panda. The overall population size of Giant Panda keep on dwindling. There are only six places left in Higher Himalayas where more than 100 individual of Giant Pandas are left . This is only because, bamboo makes up almost 90 percent of their diet and bamboo itself has become vulnerable to climatic change . Human activities like agriculture, logging, infrastructure, development, grazing livestock, growing crops pose big threat .
    Priorities for conservation of Giant Panda should include maintaining and increasing suitable connected habitat and restoration of habitat with bamboo species or genotypes which are adapted to warmer climate. Moreover smuggling of exotic animals species should be banned and the number of reserved forests should be increased.

  • Rather than thinking of an animal already in dire need of help, I'd like to discuss animals that are soon to be affected on mass. How much hotter does it have to get for animals -that we heavily rely on- to experience extinction or at least huge reduction in numbers. An animal like a chicken won't be able to survive in 30-degree Celsius heat without proper environments and I know that it reached 40 degrees in the UK this year and higher in other places. If it takes for us to be affected by animals suffering for us to do something, then that must change.

    I am aware of difficulties and different factors that are at play but if we continue to wait, then the problem will continue to get worse and worse until it becomes a point where will enter a whole new era where we have to change everything about the way we survive. Change must come quickly and hold until we are fully accustoming to survive with 0 emissions.

  • I cannot choose one animal until I describe what happened to it when the climate changes. Whenever I choose an animal, another animal comes to my mind, because if one of the animals is affected by the climate, this does not change. It only changes the animal, but also the environment, because God Almighty created every animal that affects On the environment, even if it was lost, it negatively affected the living organism

  • Climate change affects a lot of animals :
    The leatherback turtle lays its eggs on certain beaches, then returns every three or four years to repeat the ritual, but with increasing global warming, the beach may not exist after a few years, and even if it still exists, the increase in temperature can deteriorate diversity. The turtle's genetics, and specifically, the eggs that tend tIt is incubated in warmer conditions until it hatches and gives offspring of females, and the increase in females at the expense of males has a detrimental effect on this genetic makeup of this species, making future turtles more vulnerable to disease or other destructive changes in their environment, and they become endangered animals .

    What can we do to control climate change and thus save these creatures??
    From here, we have to develop plans to reduce global warming, such as planting trees, carrying out cleaning campaigns, and encouraging the community to use environmentally friendly energy methods to mitigate the greatest amount of damage.
    “One hand does not clap.” We must cooperate to save these creatures because one person cannot change the world.

    1. A nice example here aware_leaves!

  • "THEY ARE ALSO ABUSED BY US"
    Abusing animals rights is like fighting nature,it doesn't make sense if we fight against climate change at the same time POACHING and killing animals for our economical consumptions like to obtain hooves,hides and skin,ivory. We do all this as though we are blind to its effects for example it could cause extinction of some animal species.
    So before we blame factors like climate change,let's also first reflect on our actions cause we might the leadind hazard in animal right abuse.
    Therefore I would like to encourage love and harmony with animals let's instead love them,treat, protect them from their other enemies like climate change.

  • animal are now being affected by climate due to change in weather. one of the hottest years on record was last year where there was hardly rain. Higher temperatures increase heat-related illnesses and can make it more difficult for animals work and move around. Wildfires can eaisily get started due to increase in temperature which start more easily and spread more rapidly when conditions are hotter. And on of the animals that are affected by it is the green sea turtle usually there gender are determined by the degree of hottness or coldness where their eggs are kept , there are usually more female than males so the is low population of male to female which will eventually lead to their extintion of their species

  • My animal of choice is the red panda although there are lots of other animals that are endangered. I have chosen the red panda because there are only about 2500 of them left in the wild and we need to protect them. Red panda's are effected by climate change because the heat that climate change is creating is causing them to lose their home and die. I think World leaders should think about this problem at Cop 27. I would recommend the Red Panda Network as a good charity to donate to. I hope world leaders talk about this huge problem at Cop 27.

  • Many animals from all around the world are dying due to cop27 and they somtimes have to leave thier homes and familes just to be safe

    1. COP27 is the event where countries come together to discuss how to slow climate change. This will protect animals. Can you explain what you mean?

      1. Sure katie,the longer cop27 lasts the more animals getting endangered. A bit like what flowing_information said red pandas are starting to get endangered from this cop27 event due to losing thier habitats or if its to hot in thier habitat they might die. Scientists say people are trying to help but the world is not doing enough. Polar bears are also suffering from cop27 since thier ice caps are melting because of the heat and climate change. My piont is that climate change is hurting many animals from all around the world.

  • I'd like to see this from a different perspective, I'd like to talk about an animal that's actually affected by climate change. We must ask ourselves why animals are affected and what we can do to help them. Bramble Cay melomys is an animal that has become extinct due to human-caused climate change. She lived on a small sandy island in the Torres Strait, off the coast of Papua New Guinea. So, as an animalist I would like to say some of the reasons why I went extinct. Home or habitat endangerment, pollution, overfishing, and climate change all contribute to habitat loss that used to be a real problem. The problem is that the world is changing, and these animals don't know how to change with it. For this problem I think scientists should study the habitat and any changes in it, this can be useful because we can artificially reverse the effect and create a better and more suitable environment for endangered species. The species is small and that doesn't make it the best for them to acclimate. We all do different things that endanger the animals we hunt, everything in order to make bags of clothes and shoes that destroy the Earth more, we should try to be more considerate and always remember that climate change can affect us too.

  • Instead of killing those animals we can use them for protection. Animals like dogs are used to protect the people that they live with them, from people like thieves, robbers, kidnappers etc.

  • The polar bear is one of the most endangered animals, as it lives on ice near the frozen sea in the north, and feeds on seals and others... And when the number of these animals decreases, it leads to the polar bear becoming increasingly unstable due to the apparent global warming (the melting of the poles), which makes it dispersed and becomes lost because the pole is with its only home. From this point, we have to develop maps to reduce global warming, such as carrying out cleaning campaigns and planting large numbers of trees, and we help each other hand in hand, and as the saying goes, one hand does not clap...
    Do you agree with me on this solution?

  • I am here to state that animal are all important to the society but i will deciede to talk about insect which play a big role in society even due we don't relly recornise it because insect are important and due to the climate change which causes global warming in the case of society just like the insect help us to pollinate different flowers which give rise to different species of plant and offspinng insect like "bees" they help us in producing natural honey which we use and due to the hottness the bee seem to start reacting to the heat radiations which made them slow and infficient to work because without insect like them we no be able to start up some flowershop to see beautiful flowers like "snapdragon" flowers e.t.c

  • Animals oh beautiful animals. Animals are what beautify our planet. imagine waking up to a world were there are no rabbits , dogs or animals in general. there is a need to save them because we practically caused their extinction .we should try not to kill animals which are extinct or kill them in excess. and also we should not destroy their habitats without creating a new one for them

  • So as to me I will be general I'll just take all the wild animals that live in the forest. First of all people these days only care about themselves forgetting that there are other creatures on Earth. If I can give an example people need land for settlement, agriculture purposes industrial use and so on. So in order to fulfill what they need they look for the forests which habitats for this wild animals and they clear them forgetting that when they're cleared animals will have no where to stay, they want to have food since some of them get their food from the trees in the forest then at the animals like the lions that feed on other animals won't have food because the animals will have migrated to other places because they lack food in that area. So as a caring citizen I would advise there country or the government to enforce strict laws on deforestation. But I were to choose an animal it would be a fish because at most time there are fish that do live in ponds and some other gazetted water sources. But the thing is people in need to construct or settle in the are, they end up clearing those water sources leading to the death of the fish then also people who go fishing, they used unauthorized method to catch fish like the use of poison and this is common in my country Uganda. When this poison is inserted into the water it kills all fish including the young ones leading to extinction of fish. So I advise people there to use proper fishing methods like use of hooks, fishing nets and so on. And I would also advise the governments of different countries to enforce strict laws on clearing of water sources and use of unauthorized methods of fishing. This will help conserve the nature.

  • We should stop the use of many things to save animals the sea is getting warmer and higher.
    The artic is melting away killing loads of animals on the way.
    We need to stop what we have started

  • The animal I have chosen is the panda. They are affected by habitat loss because of the agricultural activities carried out by man, when fertilizers are used and are not properly disposed off it causes land pollution and degradation which leaves less land space for them and natural reserves cannot be built. The world is constantly evolving and as humans we know that but animals are not opportune to have the knowledge and in order to make them adjust to the change there should be provision of artificial habitat which some countries have already as game reserves but due to pollution land space is becoming a problem as stated earlier so in terms of artificial home we can use remote monitoring technology and just like fishes have aquariums other animals can have something similar which safeguards them and promotes tourism.

  • Now days due to human activities, many species of animals and insects are getting extinct. Many of them has already gone extinct such as the dodo and the passenger pigeon. But now many animals such as platypus are about to extinct. There are only three hundred thousand “300,000” platypus left in the world.
    ~Platypuses , We are solitary animals for most of our lives, although on occasion we can be seen in pairs. Our mothers stay with us for some months. We platypus, renowned as one of the few mammals that lay eggs, also is one of only a few venomous mammals. The males can deliver a mega-sting that causes immediate, excruciating pain, like hundreds of hornet stings, leaving victims incapacitated for weeks.

  • Flamingos are affected by global warming in several ways.
    First, these birds prefer to mate during the rainy season, so prolonged periods of drought can negatively affect their survival rates.
    second, acidification from increased carbon dioxide production can cause toxins to build up in blue-green flamingos, which sometimes like to eat them.
    third, a restriction ledTheir habitats drive these birds into areas where they are most vulnerable to predators such as coyotes and pythons.
    Finally, since flamingos derive their pink colors from shrimp in their diet, overfeeding shrimp can turn these notoriously white birds white.

    What can we do to control climate change and thus save these creatures??
    From here, we have to develop plans to reduce global warming, such as planting trees, carrying out cleaning campaigns, and encouraging the community to use environmentally friendly energy methods to mitigate the greatest amount of damage.

  • Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns. These shifts may be natural, but since the 1800s, human activities have been the main driver of climate change, primarily due to the burning of fossil fuels (like coal, oil and gas), which produces heat-trapping gases. The main cause of climate change is burning fossil fuels such as oil, gas, and coal. When burnt, fossil fuels release carbon dioxide into the air, causing the planet to heat up.Climate Change is the defining issue of our time and we are at a defining moment. From shifting weather patterns that threaten food production, to rising sea levels that increase the risk of catastrophic flooding, the impacts of climate change are global in scope and unprecedented in scale. Obviously there should be no doubt that we human beings are responsible for this purpose.

    Climate change is effecting a lot of things in this planet, along with the organisms, also the animals. There are lots of planet's animals who are getting the impact of climate change. Rising temperatures affect vegetation, food sources, access to water and much more. Ecosystems may become uninhabitable for certain animals, forcing wildlife to migrate outside of their usual patterns in search of food and livable conditions, while causing other animals to die off.For example, if rates of habitat loss and fragmentation due to human development and global warming continue—combined with deaths from poaching—we could lose Africa’s elephants in the next 40 years. If the impact of climate change increases then, the planet is going to be destroyed and unless it will get over some days, it is us who is going to stop this.So ,We humans are the one to stop this and we actually must do this.

  • Many forget that we are not the only ones who suffer from climate conditions and harsh weather fluctuations, animals also suffer, and according to a study published on the website of the National Academy of Sciences in the United States of America, climate change could cause the extinction of a third of all wild animals by the year 2070 and the animal that I want to talk about now It is the most preferred animal for its speed and beauty. It is the leopard. There are two types of leopard groups remaining: African and Asian. According to National Geographic, reports said that there are only 7,100 Asian cheetahs left in the world, and there are several reasons for the fastest mammal on earth facing the threat of extinction, the most important of which are climate changes and the rise in temperature, as it was forced to change its diet to keep pace with the changes that occurred, which led to a decrease in Their reproductive capabilities and the presence of numbers of them outside the reserves, in addition to the increasing conflict between them and humans, and I demand world leaders to protect these animals by increasing the number of reserves in order to breed them
