Identify an existing problem that is being caused by climate change in the world today and explain how that problem can be addressed.
Since the climate change affects us in many ways, there becomes a lot of problems concerning with it. One of the problems is that many species are facing extinction. This is mainly because they cannot adopt the new environment quickly. This phenomena is also related with global warming. But global warming is also the sign of climate change as the whole world becomes warmer and warmer. Why does this happen? This is mainly because our ecosystem no longer balance completely. This is the negative side-effects of climate change.
As climate change makes the world warmer, species such as polar bear, salmon,penguins are being threatened. And also the mainland animals such as tigers, leopards become endangered species. The worst is that it can potentially cause catastrophic and long-term changes to the environment and people's lives around the world. People's life may become worried-level. Cold water fishes are scarcer and coral-reefs are being damaged.To prevent countless species being forced into extinction, we need a definite solution to solve it out.
First, we need more meetings like KYOTO protocol. These protocols can lead us to collaborate each other. Second, the respective government can define the forbidden areas, control and regulate the areas to breed endangered species.Third, we can make artificial control system to maintain some species which need special conditions. But it costs so much that we cannot maintain it so long. Since the root is the climate change,we all need to try the causing factors of it. Scientists are also researching to get technical fixes.Some parts of the solutions are available.But the most important is that everyone has a role to play in implementing solutions at all levels of society.We must Take Action!

The introduction and the conclusion are rather catchy. =)
I think global warming is really a very important issue that the world should come together to come up with a solution or else the water level will be forever rising and the small little dot Singapore will disappear soon! =(
I think more need to be elaborated with regards to how extinction of animals will affect the lives of people and the environment. I agree with you that artificial control system is one way in which you can help the animals to adapt in changes to the environment. Besides the cost of the system, I was thinking that if animals are kept in captivity for too long, they may be unable to adapt to the environment when they are released back to the wild.
