"Strange Days on Planet Earth"
Part 4
The Earth's surface is covered by 70% of the ocean's water.Plankton's are one of the smallest animals that feed by algae.Global Warming was not the cause that Plankton would disappear,but it was because the warmer the water gets,the less plankton there are.When the water is warm it makes it harder for the animals to survive.If the crab dies then the predator that eats the crab gets affected too by not having what to eat.We are all interconnected by each other like if you put something in the Earth then the person gets affected.These coral reefs are having diseases too because they are have less color and less fish in it.Dust is causing for this disease happen.More and more dust is being swept away into the air to the America's.The Pathogens is making for the corals be in disease.The Earth's rise is affecting the atmosphere.This affects the dust to be spread more.That means that we are getting the Earth to be warmer because too much CO2 is being released by many gases.If people would start not using too much gases meaning the transportation,it can make a difference by decreasing the climate disasters.
Part 5
The ocean is rising,so that means that some animals are there and when they stay more than 2 days they will die and that also mean that the animals are going to starve from food.There has been more changes because people are seeing new transformations of plants and animals in Lake Guri,Venezuela.Before the flood,Lake Guri had a lot of predators and a lot of plants.Now it's quiet.On Iguana Island there are many reptiles and monkeys packed where they can't fit.The ants,the monkeys,and the reptiles are being destructive because more predators are being dead because of the flood and more prey come.If they kill predators then more herbivores are coming and some are causing for diseases.Predators are dangerous,but we do need them.The vegetation that animals need is not there and they need it to survive without it,they don't have anything.There are less animals,but trees are not there either.Trees in Yellowstone are disappearing and researchers are figuring out what was causing these trees to disappear.The Aspen Trees are not generating since then.Wolves are disappearing too because they see that they killing them because this was the predator.Since the wolves are being killed Elks are now living.Beavers are living too because now they can build their dam and they make the water be filled with nutrients.There are also predators in the ocean like the shark.The coral Reefs are dying from suffocating.Only the part of the top is alive and the bottom layer there are skeletons.The algae has been taking over the coral reefs which makes the coral harder for them to grow.90% of the fish are gone.There are many spots in the ocean that are empty and those empty spots are now spreading.Fishermen are having trouble finding he fish because there are no fish and sometimes they said that it will take them sometimes a day.Other times they lose their sight and wont come back.Some fish have tripled their reserves.With that,fishermen are starting to catch bigger fish.When they put them onto the reserves they have a better chance of living.Some predators are in cages,but find their way out.We do need predators too.
Part 6
The Leopard Frog is not the only one in trouble because other frogs have flourished over years.These frogs might look healthy,but they have eggs inside. Atrozine is killing the frogs.The frogs that he got,are mostly from the waters that have in Atrizine.Most of the frogs that live in pure water are the ones that are healthy.The males are the ones that are living in waters that have Atrizines in.Larger dosis are the ones who are safe.Atrizine can harm animals.Water doesn't stay put.Water has worked into rivers.The whales are known as the canaries of the seas because of their voice and those are called Beluga Whales.The Beluga Whales are the ones that have the highest cancer.The Beluga Whales are being contaminated by some chemicals that nobody knows and these can be hurting the Beluga's skin or they might be just eating something.Some fish are being contaminated by mercury.90% are the fish that are being contaminated.They get contaminated by eating other prey.Some plants have control of not getting contaminated.Bacteria was processed by mercury.He succeeded on getting mercury get eaten by plants.Many of these Synthetic chemicals get runned of many rivers.The Great Barrier Reef has the extraordinary corals.There has been outbreaks in the corals because there are crowns of thorns that are eating it and that they are killing it.More starfish larvae can survive by the nitrogen.There has been runoff that's is really affecting The Great Barrier Reef.Not nearly enough to reach the chemicals water.Some people are helping for the chemicals not get into the water.Some researchers are being worried because sharks,whales,and other ones have toxins in their tiles.The mola mola has toxins in eat that nobody knows what are the toxins that they have because they are always away from the reef.They have chemicals in it that researchers are tracking them with a device to see what chemicals they have inside of them.By their things or characteristics,they are giving their message of the water,the environment,and how the animals and plants are living.
