Soon enough, we will lose some of the most amazing sites on Earth!

The Great Barrier Reef---Rising air temperatures will cause sea temperatures to rise as well. All life supported by the oceans will be affected with this shock to their ecosystem. Coral are some of the most vulnerable marine animals and we are already watching whole reefs disappear. The Great Barrier Reef in Australia is no exception and will continue to shrink as the temperatures rise! These reefs are some of the best in the world for diving, but they will soon disappear!

Venice---Sprawing across(横跨)hundreds of small islands in Northeast Italy, Venice is at extreme risk of sinking into the Adriatic Sea. Rising sea levels are in fact a serious threat to many coastal cities located at sea level. Lucky for us, however, Venice is developing a series of sea walls to protect the city in times of high tide.

Glacier(冰川)National Park---Glacier National Park was once covered by over 150 glaciers, but by 2005 it only had about 27! Located in Montana, Canada, this park is over a million acres and has a huge plant and wildlife population. As temperatures rise, the glaciers and ice melt, which will upset the ecosystems sustaining over a thousand plant species and hundreds of animals.

The Amazon---The cause behind the disappearance of these fantastic places ultimately comes down to humans. Our expansion usually requires cutting down forests for land, fuel and materials, but rarely considers the consequences. These forests are sources of food and medicine for just about everyone on the planet!

What will happen if we lose these valuable places and beautiful destinations?!

6.As more and more people speak the global languages of English,Chinese,Spanish,and Arabic,other languages are rapidly disappearing.In fact,half of the 6,000-7,000languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century,according to the United Nations Educational,Scientific,and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).
In an effort to prevent language loss,scholars from a number of organizations----UNESCO and National Geographic among them----have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.
Mark Turin,a scientist at the Macmillan Center,Yale University,who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas,is following in that tradition.His recently published book,A grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture,grows out of his experience living,working,and raising a family in a village in Nepal.
Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin,who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India,Nepal,Bhutan,and China.But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.
At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials----including photographs,films,tape recordings,and field notes----which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.
Now,through the two organizations that he has founded----the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project----Turin has started a campaign to make such documents,found in libraries and stores around the world,available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected.Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet,Turin notes,the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.

With a nostalgic(怀旧的) look on his face,he softly said:"Anytime I fill my thermos I think of your mom."The tone in his voice was so tender as he spoke of my mother,who is sadly no longer with us.
"Oh honey,I know she's watching and listening right now with a big smile on her face,"I responded,tears in my eyes.
One morning years ago when we were leaving,mother watched as Jerry was to fill his thermos.Mom then casually said,"Jerry,if you filled your thermos with hot water and let it sit a while,your coffee would stay hot for longer then."With her simple suggestion,his face showed that he was shocked by his own lack of common sense,well,of course it would!
He poured out the small amount of coffee already in the thermos and refilled it with boiling hot water.Then he poured the water and refilled it with hot coffee.Mom smiled as Jerry did so.
Words of wisdom from a loving mother-in-law made an impact that will never be forgotten.She never dreamed her words would be a treasured and everlasting memory in the heart of her son-in-law.
