Destroying Our Homes The lifestyles around us are constantly getting destroyed thanks to us humans. According to National Geographic, in the article â€Å"Global Warming Fast Facts† states that â€Å"2500 scientists have concluded that humans have caused all or most of the warming(par.1).† This was suggested because of the types of jobs that deal with working within the environment, such as industrialization which release harmful gases into the air and deforestation which destroy trees. The main argument was that these jobs need to be limited and lessen the use of harmful gases or else the ecosystems not just in the Arctic but in the entire world can be ruined.

With the rising temperatures, homes of animals and humans are getting ruined.
