I feel that every person has their own responsibility in preserving the habits which are threatened by human encroachment. Humans are responsible for the endangerment and extinction of many species around the world. These species range from small insects to huge mammals. We destroy their natural habitats and force them to either adapt or die off. This occurs constantly in newly developed subdivisions and expanding cities. It is very likely to encounter wildlife searching for food or a place to live in these areas.
The removal of trees in an environment will force wildlife to migrate to a different area in order to survive. This can change the natural balance of the ecosystem. Pollution is a very serious issue as well. It can cause an entire area to become uninhabitable and will kill any creatures that currently resign there. Everyone needs to play their own part and prevent this from occurring. Logging and construction companies need to be more aware of the animals living in these areas and implement measures to protect them. Pollution should never even be an issue. Companies need to dispose of their waste properly so it doesn’t affect the ecosystem negatively.
Oil drilling isn’t going to stop any time soon unless a new fuel alternative presents itself in the near future. This is one instance where it is hard to balance both sides. The only thing these companies can really do is implement safety measures that will help prevent oil spills that pollute the environment. After all, we do not need another oil spill like the one that occurred in the Gulf of Mexico.
People should definitely intervene. When a habit is destroyed, multiple animals are in danger. It doesn’t matter where it is located; people need to do whatever they can to save these animals. Even if they only save one life, at least they tired to make a
