Ocean fish could disappear in 40 years: UN

After reading this article, I agree that Ocean fish is slowly reducing in number as the consumption of fish by human is countless. If human does not reduce the consumption of fish, in many years later, all the fishes would be be fully consumed. And also due to the recent oil leak, many fishes in the sea have died due to the oil that prevent the sunlight and oxygen to reach the fishes. This would eventually decrease the number of fishes in the sea. Therefore, I suggest that people should breed the fishes before they consume as this would allow the new breed fishes to replace those that have been consumed. Example, in a fish breeding area, there are 1000 fishes. People should breed the fishes until there are 2000 fishes and they can consume 1000 fishes as the remaining number of fishes goes back to 1000, and they continue to breed them. This will eventually reduce the loss of fishes.

2010 Year of Biodiversity Tries to Rein in Runaway Extinctions

After reading this article, I can suggest that most of the problem is caused by global warming. Ice melting at the north and south pole had caused the polar species unable to survive. Ice melting also causes the rise of sea level and increased storm activity due to climate change which causes the leatherback turtle habitats to be destroyed. The rising in sea water temperature had causes the sea lives to be loss. As sea water temperature is high, it reduces the oxygen level and therefore, fishes are unable to survive. Increase in CO2 had caused the plants to die as the plants do have enough oxygen for their processes. Therefore, I suggest that if people want to solve these problems, they should think about how to reduce global warming. People that drives car should sometimes think about how much harm had they caused to the earth. Public transport should be taken instead of driving as it reduces the number of cars on the road, which will reduce the emission of CO2.

Both the article talks about the extinction of animal, plants, and fishes life. I suggest that people should really start thinking about how to solve these problems and also they should know how much harm had they caused to the earth.
