How does pollution effect Antarctica???

How does Pollution effect Antarctica???

Pollution in Antarctica, well, it is when rubbish, that is man made is brought together to one continent, Antarctica. It is the inconsiderate thoughts of mankind that have helped build up the pollution, that in time have slowly decreased animal populations.

In this explanation writing you will learn about Pollution in Antarctica and How it effects the Animals and their Environment.

How does pollution effect Antarctica? Well, the main source of pollution in Antarctica is man, but the way that it gets from countries all over the world to one continent is quite usually from fishing boats. It is the rubbish off of fishing boats that gets dropped into the sea, that either floats onto Antartica or sinks and becomes pollution under water.What is the main type of pollution in Antarctica? The main type of pollution is the same as around the world! Rubbish!

How does pollution effect Antarctic animals? Animals in Antarctica as you know do not know much about humans so when they see rubbish thet mistake it for food. Then they ingest the fod and then it becomes trapped in them. As you may know rubbish takes a long time to break down. And slowly the rubbish becomes gases. So basically the rubbish poisons them. Another way that animals die from rubbish is when they get caught in it. The rubbish migt become embedded in the animal slowly cuttig the flesh.

How does pollution effect the environment? Well as most people should know green house gases and pollution around the world is helping cause Global Warming. Global Waming is a very serious matter as Antarctica is slowly melting. Scientists say that sea levels have risen more in a few years then it has in over a hundred years. If ths keeps happening small islands will start to flood.

This is some of the many bad things that is happening just from one little word and one big thing, Rubbish! If humans could just think before they act then they will be helping to give the world a second chance.
