Then 
Now
I am a polar bear ten years back I lived a comfortable and happy life. There was so much ice in Alaska on which I could play, rest and easily prey the fish and walruses that were in the sea .I enjoyed it a lot. I was created this way, but now I feel dejected and despondent for I think that my predicament(problems) is being ignored by mankind and actually they are being worsened by them. The ice has started to melt. It startled me ,for ice was my home and it seemed that it was being snatched from me...the ice has now depleted so much that it seems nothing as compared to the sea level around it now I need to swim for says and nights..just to find enough food for me to survive. I am so heartbroken to see my fellow polar bears die due to the scarcity of fish in the sea which have died due to polluted sea water. It arises a trepidation in my mind that my species might get extinct soon! I never used to attack humans for I used to have plenty of food to eat but now I had to attack a few humans being forced by my necessity .I felt bad but what could I do? Eventually from my perception ..it is the fault of the humans only...it is because of their activities that now I am placed in such conditions. But still I see a ray of hope for I observed a group of children sharing their concern about my dreadful condition.
I wish if I could be part of COP21 and speak for my cause. I thank the children of the world who are united and feel concerned for the endangered species like me…..!
