In a land far far away in the snowy regions of 

Antarctica there was a very large Usus 

maritimus, also known as a polar bear, named 

Payton. Payton was in trouble because of rising 

waters.

In a land far away from Payton there were 

many cities filled with cars and factories that 

made lots of pollution. Some of Payton's family 

such as Billy the Brown Bear lived here and 

told her about it

This pollution   is emitting gases that is making 

the world hotter. This means more of the ice in 

Payton’s world is melting, causing waters to 

rise.

One day Payton came home from hunting seals 

and walruses, only to see that her home was 

being flooded by the water. Many of her 

animalia family was nowhere to be found, 

mostly her chordata relatives.

Payton couldn’t find her children and had to 

sleep on a very thin sheet of ice for the night.

The next morning when Payton woke up she 

was surrounded by water and her ice was 

nearly cracking. Using her powerful legs she 

swam herself south to the colder areas of the 

Antarctica.

After swimming many miles south, she found a 

new glacier with many polar bears. To her 

delight, she found her children. 

Although Payton and her children turned out to 

be okay, life wasn’t the same. The new glacier 

was overcrowded with other polar bears, many 

that had been forced to come there too.

Global warming has been harmful for animals 

beyond just Payton and other polar bears. Humans 

must reduce their impact on the earth. Simple 

things like biking instead of driving, recycling 

instead of throwing away, and turning off the sink 

while brushing your teeth can have a huge impact.
