The environment article is about marine species. Thousands are discovered every year. There are so many that it is a challenge, even for very intelligent scientists to name all species and where they come from. Therefore, a project was made, called Census of Marine Life, or also called CoML. Hundreds and hundreds of scientists have come together to study species to find out where they come from and where they live now. The CoML scientists have created models on the animals' habitats to see how it will be later on. By doing this they can see when the species will die entirely and how they can prevent this from happening sooner. Certain oceans that are more prone to this happening have now been prohibited from being able to fish there. Laws have been made in the United Nations, to protect the ocean.This topic to me is a big deal because I think all should have a right to live on this planet. Even though fish are little and uninteresting to some people they are still amazing in their own way and very important. It was good for the CoML scientists to disallow fishing in some areas where species could die because they are helping the animals live longer. I think humans could be selfish sometimes because they are only thinking about themselves, when it comes to fishing. The people who do that only want to make money off of how many fish they get and are not caring about the lives that are being cut short.In October fourththe news about this project will be spread all over Great Britain, when the results of what the scientists have learned will be public. This will also show people that fish are important too and open their eyes to see how they can help them. Some obstacles would be that fishing not being stopped in other places, which can make some of them become extinct. Water is being polluted as well, which isn't helping.
