Animals have been hurt by recycling so you should reduce your amount of recycling.

# data[].attributes.body
Get reusable water bottles.

# data[].attributes.body
Use plastic containers for food instead of plastic bags.

# data[].attributes.body
Warm air and ocean surface temperatures, from global warming, can affect coral reefs by bleaching the coral. This would kill the organisms living in the coral.
This could be prevented bringing a lunch without any trash or recycling. By not having any trash or recycling in your lunch, you lower the amount of energy used.

# data[].attributes.body
The first step of recycling is to reduce your amount of waste.

# data[].attributes.body
eco lunches help prevent animal extinctions by making a better atmosphere for animals that is easier to live in

# data[].attributes.body
By reducing the amount of trash which we produce in our school lunches each day, we can save energy from the treatment of trash which will result in less global warming. This will save polar bear habitat.

My lunch contributes to saving polar bears because it does not require heating up. Heating and other forms of energy use are the causes of a more steady trapping of greenhouses gasses, and therefore, global warming. Global warming causes the polar ice caps to melt and ruins the polar bears' habitat.

# data[].attributes.body
Global Warming will lead to ideal conditions for mosquitos to overpopulate. Mosquitos spread diseases such as Zika and Dengue. Due to climate change, an additional 1.5 – 2.5 billion people are at rick of contracting Dengue.

If your lunch is packaged in non-reusable materials it will cause waste, and therefore energy will be consumed to recycle it or dispose of it.  If you use reusable containers you will lower the amount of energy consumption. Excessive energy consumption leads to global warming and therefore spread of disease through mosquitos.

Voiceover: Hurricanes are affected by the melting of ice caps. As the ice caps melt, the ocean gets full of freshwater. The sun evaporates the water and the atmosphere gets more moist. But the ability of a hurricane to form relies on the moisture of the air. Hurricanes will become more and more frequent and more costal places will be flooded

Puffins main food source, specific species of fish, are moving into deeper water due to rising sea temperatures, making access to food a problem for the puffin. Puffins are almost non-existent in habitats where they once thrived.

Rising temperatures have stunted the growth of plants and fruit elephants thrive on.

Rising global temperatures are pushing pikas out of the habitats they historically have called home, leading to a crisis for the species. When exposed to high heat, pikas, which have adapted to cold alpine temperatures, can die from overheating in just a few hours. Many experts say the animals could possibly be the first animal to go extinct due to climate shifts.

# data[].attributes.body
Penguins, specifically Adélie penguins on the Antarctic continent, are feeling the impacts of climate change on their habitats. Adélies are sea ice obligate birds, meaning they can only exist where sea ice is present. Rising global temperatures are causing major habitat shifts for penguins, threatening their ability to thrive in their only livable environment.

In the tropics, increased sea temperatures are causing more coral reefs to “bleach,” as the heat kills colorful algae that are necessary to coral health and survival.

# data[].attributes.body
Due to melting ice in the Arctic, polar bears may be gone from the planet in as little as 100 years.

Another island (probably more knowable) is hilton head island in south Carolina. That will be underwater in 20-30 years

In 1999, the death of the last Golden Toad in Central America marked the first documented species extinction driven by climate change.

# data[].attributes.body
One-fourth of the Earth's species could be headed for extinction by 2050 due to climate change.

With the polar bears' prey dying off, they have nothing to eat, and are forced to turn to cannibalism

# data[].attributes.body
Taking trash where it can be recycled uses more energy than just incinerating it.

# data[].attributes.body
When carbon dioxide increases, ocean acidification decreases. Corals cannot absorb the calcium carbonate they need to maintain their skeletons and the stony skeletons that support corals and reefs will dissolve.

# data[].attributes.body
populations have gone extinct simply because temperatures got too hot for the plants and animals to survive.

# data[].attributes.body
The polar ice caps are melting so much that the whole sea level is rising. My favorite island in Georgia called Tybee island will be underwater within the next 7-10 years. That may not seem like a short time, but within the history of the earth, that's no time at all.

A blanket around the Earth. A layer of greenhouse gases – primarily water vapor, and including much smaller amounts of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide – acts as a thermal blanket for the Earth, absorbing heat and warming the surface to a life-supporting average of 59 degrees Fahrenheit (15 degrees Celsius).

Global warming can cause more diseases. Global warming leads to extreme weathers, such as heavy downpours and hotter weather. This creates the perfect breeding ground for mosquitos.  Mosquitos spread many diseases such as Zika and West Nile disease. This can cause many epidemics. An additional 1.5-2.5 billion people will be at risk of contracting dengue in 2085 due to side affects of climate change

The disposal and treatment of waste can produce emissions of several greenhouse gases (GHGs), which contribute to global climate change.The most significant GHG gas produced from waste is methane. ... Other forms of waste disposal also produce GHGs but these are mainly in the form of carbon dioxide (a less powerful GHG).

During the breakdown of organic material in landfills, greenhouses gases are released. One form of greenhouses gas is methane. These contribute to global warming.

Because the habitat of the polar bears has melted away, the polar bears cannot build dens for their young, and hunt for prey without risking their lives.
