Protect the Arctic Refuge Jimmy Carter’s forward to Arctic National Wildlife Refuge: Seasons of life and Land, A Photographic Journey by Subhankar Banerjee asserts that the Arctic Wildlife Refuge should be protected by the government and the people of America. Carter supports his argument by using imagery, historical evidence, and tone. First, Carter uses a description of the Arctic refuge to prove that imagery supports his requests. The Arctic Refuge is described as “As the never setting sun circled

places are drastically changing and it is affecting animals and other life around it. A lot of the environmental changes are caused by the weather changing. These changes can cause animals to struggle in everyday tasks like finding food to eat. The Arctic ice is slowly melting away and this is really hurting the polar bear population. This weather change is causing the polar bears to have a big diet change. They are now catching less seals but they are traveling a greater distance across the ice. This

woman who lived on an island in the Caribbean. She had eighty-five cats living with her. She noticed that one of her kittens were starting to act weird, so she loaded all eighty-five cats on her boat and headed to America. Her reasoning: she heard that the world’s finest veterinarian was stationed in Atlanta, Georgia, and she would stop at nothing to get the best care for her babies. By the time she made it to America, all of her cats were sick and she wasn’t feeling too well herself. Even the world’s

Polar Bear Evolution is a Continuing Story The polar bear, the largest land carnivore in North America, one of the largest animals in the world and a favorite at zoos worldwide, has, over the years, adapted to its harsh Arctic environment. The appropriately named ‘ursus maritimum’ or sea bear usually lives between 15 and 18 years in the wild and spends most of its life on ice. It is the most recent of the eight bear species. The first polar bear was a brown bear subspecies, with brown bear dimensions

Arctic and Alpine Soils Proposal (Ant)arctic (high-latitude) and alpine (mountain) areas are affected by relatively similar climates, as latitude and altitude produce similar meteorologic effects. In these geographic regions where temperature is at such a pronounced extreme, climate would seem to be the leading factor of soil development. It is my goal in this research paper to answer the following question: How do the soils of arctic and alpine areas differ? This idea, taken largely from an

Polar bears are not just the face of Coca Cola but they are the largest living land carnivores. Polar bears live in the Arctic, they live in low temperature and where high ice content is present. Polar bears are built to survive in those habitat they have webbed paws that help them swim, strong teeth, and a thick fur coat to keep them warm (defender.org). Polar bears are considered endangered-species, there current conservation status is vulnerable the polar bear population is decreasing. Polar bears

n the book, Seekers Great Bear Lake, Erin Hunter tells a story of three young bears-one black, polar, and grizzly-and a puzzling shape-shifting bear each are following a path towards a mystical destination. But then encounter the divine Great Bear Lake. Together the four bears help each other to survive the harsh attacks from other aggressive bears and the scarcity of food they find among the wild. Later on, the three bears separated to go to their own sleuths, but soon after they separated they

Global Management As polar bears inhabit the Arctic regions of five separate nations, it is important to examine the different nation specific management plans in place for conservation of the species. By examining the various management plans in place, a comprehensive look into polar bear management of the species on a global level may be achieved. Of the five nations with polar bear populations, the three largest have some form of a national management plan in place. However, in all five nations

acidic soil. There are a variety of organisms that inhabit this region. The most common tree species, all deciduous, are the white birch, dwarf birch, and willow. Animal species include, but are not limited to, the woodland caribou, polar bear, arctic fox, arctic hare, Canadian geese, snow geese, willow ptarmigan, and several species of duck. This region spans an area of 50 million hectares, amounting to two-thirds of Ontario’s forests. This region is “heavily influenced by natural disturbances”.

The Arctic National Wildlife is a beautiful forest with various wildlives. Jimmy Carter describes his time spent with his wife in the Arctic forest. He was amazed by the beauty of such place. As stated, "During bright July days, we walked along ancient caribou trials." Jimmy gave his audience a sense of imagery when he described the way the place is. The wildlife that Jimmy saw was extraordinary to him as he examines more about the life in the Arctic National Wildlife. He experienced things that
