the Arctic & Antarctic are warming and polar bears and penguins at risk.
The latest news is that in the Antarctic, the temperature is rising five times faster than elsewhere. Many of the penguin colonies are under threat. It was really sad watching film of penguins with eggs surrounded by soft snow melt that was drowning the eggs. A new situation the parent birds had no behaviour to cope with.
We all know by now that polar bears are becoming endangered as their ice shelf disappears.
I read yesterday that the rate of species extinction at present is greater than when the dinosaurs became extinct.
