thats scary to think about, its really shitty when you think about it cuz we got this really beautifull earth and weve ruined most of it with pollution and killing animals and crap like that.

There was a program on PBS last night about something related to this. It was about how the vegetation covering Northern Alaska (& presumably all northern lands) is changing because it is getting warmer and dryer. This causes the trees to die from lack of water and increased bugs, and the forest is changing into grasslands. Also the permafrost or muskeg (underground ice) is melting and causing more disruption.

Further north, the land is changing from tundra (northern grassland) to shrubby lands, which makes the climate even warmer, and causing more disruption to animals etc.
