Deforestation
- One of the main reasons of deforestation is agricultural expansion
- Due to deforestation, many animals are losing their homes and becoming more extinct
- Deforestation also disturbes many native tribes that still live with little to no contact with the world
Wildfires
- Almost 85% of Wildfires are casued by humans leaving unattended camp fires
- Due to warmer and drier weather, wild fires are more likely to start naturally
- About 72,400 wildfires have cleared an average of 7 million acres of U.S. land each year since 2000
Animal Extinction
- The main reason many animals are going extinct is due to humans changing their home enviorment
- Many animals are being poached for their skin and body parts and are sold for high prices on the black market
- As a result of Global Warming, newer species replace older species as they are better fit to survive in the changing climate
Litter
- Plants are becoming poisonous and harmful to animals due to chemicals from litter
- The abundance of litter can cause animals to get stuck or suffocate
- Animals can mistake litter for food and consume it, causing them to choke or contract illnesses
