Habitat for animals

Sea Ice

2025-03-28 17:14:53 UTC

Sea ice is melting because of warm temperatures. Warm temperatures happen because of human activities, global warming, and greenhouse gases.

They are going to have a dramatic change. The entire global temp is going to increase making it hard for ourselves and animals to survive.

2025-03-28 17:16:25 UTC

It's really sad to know that we are losing the original temp of the earth. Animals are going extinct, we're losing ecosystems, and more. The earth is going little by little.

it is a great source of water supply for rivers,its fresh.

Glaciers are important because they store freshwater, regulate sea levels, and shape landscapes through erosion.

No, I think it would be too warm for glaciers to survive on the Equator. The Equator is the warmest place on Earth and glaciers need very cold climates.

only at very high altitudes where temperatures are cold

Koby

It is important to have glaciers because they are habitats for animals and the are also a source of fresh water.

some effects may be like rising sea levels and it can have like an economic impact, mabey not instantly but overtime.

ice from the sea is melting because the temperature is increasing because of global warming.

I think glaciers can occur near the equator, but only at high altitudes where temperatures are cold enough.

Melting Glaciers Impact

2025-03-28 17:18:07 UTC

They would have a significant impact. Due to temperature rising, it would make it difficult for humans to survive if it becomes hotter than is already. As well has animals homes would be destroyed (polar bears, penguins) while their homes melt as it gets hotter.

Joseph

Its melting because its too hot

Crystal

Sea ice is melting and I think this is happening because the environment temperature is increasing.

Cesar

there warm temperature = means ice melt

Bryce

they act as a reliable water source during dry seasons, providing water for drinking, and hydro power.

Dylan

The sea ice is melting because the temperatures are rising

2025-03-28 17:20:46 UTC

Melting glaciers pose significant threats to both humans and ecosystems, including rising sea levels, freshwater scarcity, habitat loss, and increased risk of floods and landslides.

do you think glaceries can occur at the equator

2025-03-28 17:20:59 UTC

no because its warmer and in the glaceries its colder so in certain parts of the world its colder and snows more

Dylan

2025-03-28 17:22:01 UTC

No, Because the equator would be too hot for glaciers to occur.

bryce

2025-03-28 17:22:19 UTC

it melts because the temperature is too hot

Sea ice is melting due to the increase in temperatures. What is causing these increases in temperatures is due to human activities.
