I learnt some interesting stuff in GP class today...

-

100 years ago, there were only 1.5 billion people on earth
Now, there are 6 billion people (thats 4 times!!)

-

Nearly half of all polar bear cubs die in their first year on the ice.

-

And surprisingly...

50% of kittens, puppies, etc IN THE WORLD

die before their first year as well.

-

There are only 40 Amur leopards left in the world

(usually found in Russia and Canada)

-

100 years ago, there were 100,000 tigers.
Now, there are 25,000 tigers left in the world

and 20,000 of them are kept in zoos.

-

Deserts cover one-third on the earth's land surface

and GROWING!!

-

Tropical rainforests only cover 3% of the earth's land surface

And it contains 50% of all species of the earth

-

So can you imagine that??

The box is to illustrate the earth

well, you already know that 70% of the earth is covered with water.

1/3 is the desert (brown part)

and 3% is the tropical rainforst where 50% of the world species are cramped in

-

Did you know that Indonesia is one of the main countries with rainforests??

and the idiots are burning the trees down

I know they are cause

I'm suffocating thanks to the stupid haze!!
