Protecting Our Natural Habitats
By Emma Keyser
Introduction and Quick Facts
 Climate change is caused by the “Greenhouse Effect”. This is when greenhouse gasses in the
Earth’s Atmosphere trap heat, causing global warming
 The amount of Carbon Dioxide in our atmosphere is higher than it has been in 800,000 years
 The United States is the second largest contributor to CO2 in the Earth’s Atmosphere
 One gallon of gasoline=19.64 pounds of CO2 in the air
 404 ppm of CO2 in the air as of 2016
Worldwide Impact
 Sea levels are expected to rise 1-6 feet by the end of the century
 Due to climate change, more than 20 species of animals now have an increased risk of going
extinct
 Hurricanes and other storms become stronger from climate change
 Floods and droughts will occur more often
 Certain diseases, such as Malaria and Zika will spread
Local Impact (Utah)
 Warmer climate=less snow which
means less skiing
 The decline in snow also leads to
diminished water supplies
 Hot weather can be especially
dangerous to people of older age
 Rising temperatures will also effect
farms in Utah
Issues on The Jordan River Trail
 The Jordan River Trail is used by all
ages to enjoy the outdoors
 The trail is currently facing multiple
issues that impact the natural
environment around it
 These issues include: homeless
camps, invasive species (Such as
puncture vine and thistle)
 Vandalism
 Littering
Local News on The Jordan River Trail
 This article from Fox 13 News Utah (http://fox13now.com/2017/10/05/cleanup-effort-clears-out-
homeless-camps-along-jordan-river/) Highlights one of the major problems that the trail faces
 Homeless camps, like the ones described in the article, leave behind dangerous and damaging
amounts of waste
Taking action on the trail
 The Jordan River Commission has
many volunteer efforts focused on
cleaning up the trail
 One of those efforts is mapping
problem areas along the trail, which
I was able to take part in
 These efforts go very far in
protecting the natural habitats of
the Jordan River Trail
Impact on Hunting
 Deer, elk, and moose in the Rocky
Mountains are being effected by
insects and parasites that spread
due to warmer climates
 These animals also rely on plants to
eat on plants, which are dying due
to CO2
 Whole herds could end up starving
from malnutrition
Impact on Fishing
 Rivers and lakes are often the target
of a lot of illegal dumping
 Trash and toxic waste in the water
kills many species of fish
 Increasing temperature of the water
is also very dangerous to fish and
other wildlife
Impact on Younger People
 The young people of this world are going to be the most effected by our environmental
decisions over the next decades
 If we do not act now, these younger people could lose these natural habitats that we all tend to
take for granted
 These young people are also at serious risk of major health problems due to environmental
changes and global warming
 If we want younger generations to have a future, we must take action now
