The effects that climate change will have on the world will remarkably change entire ecosystems, starting at the Poles. The North and South Poles are the two places where we can already see the most prominent effects that climate change is having. The Poles are the first places to experience the dramatic changes that climate change is having on the wildlife that inhabits the area. Starting in the north at the Arctic, polar bear populations are declining very rapidly. The water is warmer because of the carbon dioxide being absorbed into the ocean, melting the ice more quickly than ever before, making a shorter hunting season and a longer summer for these polar bears, according to Frozen Planet: On Thin Ice, directed by Sir David Attenborough. If we take a look further down south into the Antarctic, we can see the decline in the adelie penguin population and the rise in gentoo penguin population in the area. According to Antarctic Edge: 70° South, directed by Dena Seidel, the adelie penguins need a colder climate to survive, but the water is warming
