Ladywriter 7,783 Report post Posted February 5, 2009 A joint study by researchers in China and the UK found that rising temperatures will cause extinction for some types of bamboo. This could doom populations of Giant Pandas that rely on these plants for food. Examples like this bring global warming into a whole new light. Please act now >> http://www.care2.com/go/z/e/AfGs2/YXFZ/ANR12 Pandas spend 14 hours a day eating, with bamboo making up 99 percent of their diet. Of the more than 100 varieties of bamboo, pandas only eat about 20 of them. Pandas are just one of the many species that are being severely threatened by global warming. We need a worldwide effort to reduce emissions. Tell President-Elect Obama about the plight of pandas and let him know your thoughts on global warming. http://www.care2.com/go/z/e/AfGs2/YXFZ/ANR12 Thank you for being part of the solution.
