It is predicted that if humans fail to effectively save, this plant may be endangered by the end of the 21st century.
In the Giant Pillar National Park in Arizona, the Giant Pillar National Park, the drought -resistant cactus is also difficult to resist and gradually die. On June 10, local time, the water level of Lake Mida, Nevada, USA fell to the lowest level in 80 years, and a ship that had previously sank was revealed.
According to geological surveys in Glacier National Park and affected by high temperature, the gladers in this park have been reduced to 25, and the melting speed is amazing.
The climate warming of the Grand Marshland National Park has led to rising sea planes. The underground water saltization of the park in southern Florida threatened local tropical orchids and wild animals to survive.
From the wildfire, drought to the wind disaster, the park has lost thousands of giant fir for several years.
On September 21, 2021 local time, Sequoia of Sequoia National Park, California, USA burned in the fire.
