Day 4

So this is my fourth day here in the tundra biome. Today, I'm talking about the environmental dangers and solutions of this biome.

One of the most controversial threats to this biome (and the rest of the world) is global warming. Global warming will probably impact the tundra biome the most. Scientist believe that it will cause the whole artic regionc including tundras, to be wiped off this planet forever.





As frozen soil begins to freeze, the organic contents begins to decay. This results in the releasing of carbon dioxide. Carbon  dioxide is a greenhouse gas. Another threat to the biome is that oil spills are very hazardous to the wildlife in it. It can kill animals and destroy its habitat.







Some of the ways we can help preserve this biome and its wildlife is to limit the road construction, mining activities, and the building of pipelines in the habitat. We can reduce global warming by switching to alternative energy to minimize human-made global warming.
