Terrible weather events are harming the planet， and experts warn of even greater results to come． The sea ice loss and the Arctic ice melting （融化） caused by climate change have increased much in the last ten years． So they have pushed down the number of polar bears and seals while polar bears depend on sea ice for hunting seals．
According to the data from the WMO， temperatures on the Antarctica （南极洲） just hit 18．3℃， which is higher than the record of 17．59℃ in March， 2015． Moreover， temperatures in this area have warmed about 3℃ over the last 50 years． Although such temperatures might be considered pleasant for a picnic or a hiking trip， this is the Antarctica we are talking about． It is home to the most inhospitableenvironment on the planet because it is supposed to be an extremely cold place． In fact， the average temperature of the continent's central area is ﹣57℃．
Besides， many places are experiencing the extreme weather this summer． Australia is undergoing its worst drought （干旱） since the 1930s， leaving bushfires burning so long and causing many deaths． Meanwhile in Europe， crops in the northwest are suffering the driest weather in the past 80 years． Recently West Texas in America has also gone through its worst drought in more than 70 years， while floods have hit Eastern and Southern China．
"Climate change is bad for us human beings， which causes direct health problems． I'm afraid there will be more common events like the one that 30，000 to 50，000 persons died in Europe in 2003 due to the heat wave there，" Professor Schwartz said． "It will also cause more air pollution， diseases and lack of clean water and so on．"

If you want to watch and know something about birds, you must find a good place near the bird nest（巢）.
Birds sit on eggs and take care of their babies from April to June. Because the baby birds are too young to leave the nest, parents often go to look for food and come back in several minutes. So it is good to watch birds. When we watch birds, we’d better hide ourselves in a close place to the nest, and it’s better to use binoculars(双筒望远镜).
But how to make a bird nest? A good bird nest must be very fine, strong, thick and comfortable. If you want to make one, please follow these:

b) Dig a small hole in the front of the nest as a “door”. The “door” is big enough so that birds can fly in or out easily.
c) Make sure the rainwater can’t go into the nest.

Some people think that all wild animals are danger (1). In fact very few of them will attack a man if he leaves them alone. If you met a lion or an elephant, you would run away. But even a lion will avoid a man unless it is very angry. （2）(狮子和老虎只杀死并吃掉人类) when they have grown too old to catch their usual food. Some animals get frightened if they only smell a man. Some stand and look at him for a while before they run away. Some take no notice at all but quietly walk in another direction. Wild animals only attack a man when they are afraid that he means to hurt their babies, or when they are shot at and made angry.
