Our planet is in peril and we need to do something about it! While watching "Planet in Peril", I saw how some of the animals are in danger of being extinct. For instance, the polar bear is in danger of being extinct because all of the gasses and pollution and that causes all of that to go in the air which makes it warm and causes the ice to melt in Antarctica and Greenland. In bout 50 years two-thirds of these bears will be gone. But scientist think that this might be the first time an animal might be protected because of global warming.The scientists took a test on the bears. They noticed that the bears have been having strange behavior. Some of the bears have been cannibalizing each other. Also, scientist say that as the ice begins to melt, the sea level will rise, so the coastline will be covered in water. So global warming has to stop.
Chloe, I had no idea that the polar bears had started cannibalizing each other. That is so sad! I knew that polar bears fed on other animals, but not each other! It frightens me to think that some day polar bears won't be around because of global warming and the effects on their food supply.

I think that is very scary. I mean, we might all die and I don't want to die young because I planned out my future and I don't want it to be ruined.
