Walking on the thin ice

According to Marren in “Walking on the thin ice” that polar bears are under attack by global warming and chemical pollution. One source of chemical pollution is PBDE, which can protect us from fire. It was designed to keep a long time, so it can be used by producing for safety such as sofas, car sheets, and others. Actually, the polar bears are the greatest of PBDE, which badly affects the food chain, because they usually are the top-level in the food chain. Also, they had to swim up to long lengths for getting food because foods were exhausted by the warm climate. However, it is difficult for them, even though they are good at swimming, because of changing climate and pollution. PBDE is a threat to no the environment of not only the North Pole but also the rest of the world.
Currently, the world is in a serious situation about the pollution. One of the greatest victims of Arctic pollution is polar bear. Let’s learn what is happening in the Arctic now, and I am going to present the solution about that.
First, chemical materials can make serious problems. There are many chemical materials that can be dangerous materials, but the big three of worst in the world are DDT, PBDE, and Freon gas. DDT is used in the production of plants. When farmers grow their plants, they have to protect their plants from worms. DDT keep worms away, so many farmers use it. Next, PBDE is used in appliances, sofas, carpets and car seats to make them flameproof. In fact, it was very useful for safe when we had a fire. It could protect our life from the fire. Next, Freon Gas is used in air conditioner or in each kind of spray. Air conditioner makes a cool wind with Freon gas.
Second, what do they make damage about pollution? Freon gas destroys the ozone layer. We know that the ozone layer protects us from the ultraviolet, which can make a disease of our skin. Also, the hot light from sun cannot go out of the earth after it came to the surface of earth. This situation is called global warming. Because of global warming, our environment has been strangely changed abnormally; the surface of the sea has gradually risen, and many fishes, living under the cool water, have moved. On the other hand, bad chemical materials flow into the sea; so many fishes spawn deformed baby fishes.
Third, we can solve this problem in 3 ways. The government should support farmers who do not use DDT while producing their plants. For example, they should make a public relations campaign that clean food is good for your health. Next, they should develop alternative energy instead of DDT, PBDE, and Freon gas. Finally, the government should let people know about the situation of pollution in the Arctic because people will consider saving their environment if they know that.
In conclusion, the pollution of the arctic is a problem to polar bears, but it will be our problem after that. It is obvious that these problems can kill us like polar bears. Before these problems happen to us, we have to consider and make a solution. Then, we will protect our children and ourselves.
