Atmosphere
• With global warming heating up the Tundra new predatory animals are invading the tundra.
• This guy as cute as heseems, is contending with the arctic wolf forfood which is bad for both species.• Also global warming is melting away the permafrost
and because of the dead plants, guess what that releases? CO2
