Many species of animals and plants are in danger of becoming extinct. What are the causes of this problem, and what can be done to prevent it from happening ?

We are at a point where many ,if not most, of the

animals

and ,plants are on the verge of being extinct.

This

has reached

such

an alarming rate that some

species

of

animals

are already extinct and if

this

trend continues, we will lose more

species

both in the animal and plant kingdom. There are several reasons for

this

and I will discuss some in

this

essay as well as give solutions to what can be done to prevent

this

. The most important

reason

for the dwindling number of animal and plant

species

is global warming.

This

is a common term nowadays and most people are aware of it but simply choose to

In addition

, it has been scientifically proven that global warming is the main factor for the imbalance in the ecological system ,which in turn affects both

animals

and plants in a negative way. A typical example of

this

issue is the emissions and toxic fumes released from factories. A

second

reason

is in current years, many endangered

species

have been hunted down for their skin or body parts.

For instance

, elephants are being hunted down for their tusk, which is used to make ivory products and sold to the market for an exorbitant price.

This

clearly shows how the animal kingdom is being affected by the killing of

animals

. A

further

reason

is

deforestation for the expansion of cities and to use the wood or timber for making wooden materials. We are all aware that due to overcrowding in cities, the cities are being expanded by cutting down trees to make space for more land area for

further

construction of housing and accommodation.

This

results in an imbalance in the plant system which affects the entire ecological system. There are several things that can be done to prevent

this

from happening.

Firstly

, an initiative has to start by the government to reduce CO2 emission which is known to be the prime

reason

for the increase in global warming.

This

can be done by reducing the number of cars on the road and by cutting down emissions from industrial factories.

Additionally

, there should be a strict law in place to prevent the fishing of rare sea creatures like Blue codfish, shrimps , lobsters. In countries

such

as Kuwait, there is already an initiative by the government that permits the fishing of shrimps only for 2 months.

This

gives enough time for breeding and

hence

there will be stability in marine life. To conclude, I firmly believe that

animals

and plants have to be protected for our generation and future generations and these living creatures can be saved just by following certain precautionary measures.
