Various penguins \u003cbr/\u003eRepresentatives from 190 countries around the world are meeting in Poland this week to try to lay the ground work in order to reach a global climate treaty next year. \u003cbr/\u003eHorizons has documented many compelling stories of the impact of climate change in 2008, both human and environmental. \u003cbr/\u003eSnowcapped mountain tops glisten in the strong Alpine sunshine. \u003cbr/\u003eBut in the village of Zermatt, in the shadow of the Matterhorn Peak, forecasts for the long term future of Switzerland's famous glaciers are gloomy . \u003cbr/\u003eA report published by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development in January 2007, warned that warming temperatures are threatening Europe's lucrative ski trade.  \u003cbr/\u003eDoctor Frank Paul is an expert in glaciology from Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) of the University of Zurich.\u003cbr/\u003eEvery summer he travels around Switzerland measuring glaciers.\u003cbr/\u003eDoctor Paul observed that in the period 2005/2006 all the glaciers in the Swiss Alps lost length and volume almost without any exceptions.\u003cbr/\u003eHe says that the thaw of the permafrost - the layer of soil that usually remains frozen all year round - is already affecting villages and human activity at some higher parts of the country.\u003cbr/\u003ePaul says that even though Switzerland will not become a glacier-free country in the foreseeable future, the number of them will decrease dramatically in the coming decades.\u003cbr/\u003eAs winters become warmer, glaciers are slowly retreating. \u003cbr/\u003eNow some ski resorts are preparing for a possible future without snow. \u003cbr/\u003eGlobal warming is also beginning to affect the northern Japanese region of Hokkaido.\u003cbr/\u003eEvery year drift ice forming along the Siberian continent travels down to the northern coast of Kushiro in Japan's northern region of Hokkaido. \u003cbr/\u003eUsually massive white chunks crowd the coast for as long as 90 days, but more recently, eyewitnesses say the scale of drift ice has greatly diminished. \u003cbr/\u003eMuch of the drift ice now melts in as little as one week.\u003cbr/\u003eKeiichi Hori is captain of the icebreaker \"Aurora\". \u003cbr/\u003eHori says that he has noticed that each year the drift ice becomes thinner and thinner, though he says the extent of it is still about the same. \u003cbr/\u003eThe \"Aurora\" takes tourists on short excursions to experience the drift ice firsthand.\u003cbr/\u003eIt's an opportunity that may not last much longer as the temperatures continue to increase.\u003cbr/\u003eDrift ice is responsible for maintaining the sea temperature and cooling the surrounding water.  \u003cbr/\u003eAs cold water travels downward, it creates a nutrient-rich current from the seabed that spawns abundant micro organisms and fish life. \u003cbr/\u003eWithout enough drift ice to cool the water and sustain the ecosystem, the fish population has been decreasing.\u003cbr/\u003eBangladesh is a densely populated nation sitting on a vast river delta. Storms batter its low-lying lands every year, often killing large numbers of people. \u003cbr/\u003ePeople living on low lying coastal areas also experience frequent flooding during the monsoon season. \u003cbr/\u003eNow there are fears that in the future, climate change may result in rising sea levels, flooding much of Bangladesh's coastal delta. \u003cbr/\u003eSevere cyclonic storms caused by rising ocean temperature are predicted to increase both in frequency and intensity in the coming years, putting countries with very flat coastlines on the front line of climate change. \u003cbr/\u003eFishermen in the South-western village of South Khali, South-western Bangladesh, struck by tropical cyclone Sidr in November 2007, were still dealing with reconstruction efforts when AP Television visited in March 2008. \u003cbr/\u003eTropical cyclone Sidr struck Bangladesh's southwest coast on November 15, killing more than 3,300 people and leaving tens of thousands homeless. \u003cbr/\u003eThe floods and cyclone affected 25 (m) million people and caused losses of up to three (b) billion US dollars, according to the Asian Development Bank.\u003cbr/\u003eIsahali Mutugba, a fisherman from South Khali, says he never experienced such a severe storm and was surprised that so many people died. \u003cbr/\u003eBangladesh Country Representative of IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) Dr. Ainun Nishad says that the sea level is expected to rise by around one metre, which would spell disaster for Bangladesh, flooding the coastal region to  around 60-70 kilometres (37-43 miles) inland.\u003cbr/\u003eThe impact of sea-level rise is expected to be very high, especially on the ecosystem and the people who live near the coast like  Aklima, a fisherman's wife who lost her home and one of her daughters when Sidr struck. \u003cbr/\u003eGlobal warming is partly attributed to the rise in carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. \u003cbr/\u003eTrees play an important part in the natural carbon cycle, converting carbon dioxide in to oxygen in a process called photosynthesis.\u003cbr/\u003eHowever in Brazil government officials announced in September that the Amazon is being deforested more than three times as fast as 2007, acknowledging a sharp reversal after three years of declines in the deforestation rate.  \u003cbr/\u003eAmazon destruction jumped 228 percent in August when compared to the same month a year ago, according to a report from Brazil's National Institute for Space Research. \u003cbr/\u003eAbout 300 square miles (760 square kilometres) of the Amazon was destroyed last month, compared to 90 square miles (230 square kilometres) in August 2007.  \u003cbr/\u003eThe institute, which uses satellite imagery to track illegal logging, said the destruction was likely even worse than its figures show. \u003cbr/\u003eIn an effort to monitor illegal logging environmentalists use computer equipment and freely available satellite images to monitor changes in land use and deforestation of Earth's largest forest. \u003cbr/\u003eImazon is a research NGO located in Belem at the Amazon river delta. \u003cbr/\u003eThe Deforestation Alert System (SAD) was established in 2006 at a cost of about 200 thousand US dollars.  \u003cbr/\u003eTropical regions like the Amazon are often covered by clouds. \u003cbr/\u003eTo overcome this limitation Imazon use data from the low resolution MODIS camera, aboard the European-American \"Terra\" satellite. \u003cbr/\u003eUnlike less frequent satellites, Terra's swath covers the whole Earth every 1 or 2 days.  \u003cbr/\u003eImages are placed in a 7 day processing sequence and the system chooses the best pixels. \u003cbr/\u003eEach pixel covers 250 square meters of land. \u003cbr/\u003eAn automatic software system scans these compositions. A different curve results for either forest vegetation or bare land. \u003cbr/\u003eThe system then issues alerts which are double-checked using the higher resolution Landsat images which are available every 16 days only. \u003cbr/\u003eEach of these Landsat photos covers 185 square kilometres. Each pixel is 30 meters wide.  \u003cbr/\u003e229 of these photos cover the whole Brazilian Amazon.\u003cbr/\u003eImazon releases the Forest Transparency Bulletin every month through its web-site www.imazon.org.br. \u003cbr/\u003eThe bulletin contains detailed statistics on deforestation per region of the Amazon and a section is dedicated to illegal clear-cutting in state parks and protected areas. \u003cbr/\u003eSince clear-cutting is prohibited in parks, these environmental crimes are automatically reported to the justice system. \u003cbr/\u003eThe data can be used by government agencies, county and state governments and NGO's to know where urgent action is needed. \u003cbr/\u003eLast June 2008, Horizons travelled to one small area detected by Imazon in May: a two-square-kilometre patch in the municipality of Paragominas, shown in these Landsat photos. \u003cbr/\u003eIn Paragominas county, Tulio Garcia, a local environmental official, took nearly 11 hours driving on dirt roads to find the elusive spot using a GPS. \u003cbr/\u003eOnce there, at the day's end, the clearing revealed evidence of recent work in order to turn it into a cattle pasture. \u003cbr/\u003eTree stumps had been removed. Timber had been taken away to be made into charcoal, a big business in this area of the Amazon close to iron foundries.  \u003cbr/\u003eWorkers were absent, having left for the day. \u003cbr/\u003eVegetation is already growing back. In a couple of months the satellite won't even be able to tell this area was ever clear-cut. \u003cbr/\u003ePolar bears have become an important emblem of climate change. \u003cbr/\u003eHowever scientists are becoming increasingly concerned at the pace of climate change in the Arctic. \u003cbr/\u003eThe United Nations Environment Programme says the world's ice and snow is shrinking - and it's mainly due to global warming. \u003cbr/\u003e15 percent of the earth is covered by ice and snow, glaciers, permafrost and frozen lakes. \u003cbr/\u003eNow the summer ice cap is about 20 percent smaller today than in 1978 (UN climate panel reported February 2007). \u003cbr/\u003eSummer sea ice in the Arctic shrank to a record low last year to nearly 40 percent less than the long-term average between 1979 and 2000.  \u003cbr/\u003eIf this trend is not reversed, the affects on Arctic wildlife may be catastrophic, according to Dr Neil Hamilton, Director of WWF's Arctic Programme.\u003cbr/\u003eHe compares the disappearance of sea ice to the deforestation of rainforests saying \"You can't have all of the biodiversity without the life-support system. \". \u003cbr/\u003eA warmer pole means higher sea levels and a thaw in the arctic permafrost would lead to even more methane and carbon dioxide being released into the atmosphere.\u003cbr/\u003eMeanwhile in the southern hemisphere Australia is emerging from its worst drought in 100 years. \u003cbr/\u003eSpanning at times the breadth of the country, the drought savaged wheat crops and helped drive global wheat prices to all-time highs.\u003cbr/\u003eGlen Phillips has worked this farmland in the State of South Australia for 34 years, taking it over from his father who bought the land in 1949. \u003cbr/\u003eThe wheat farmer from Poochera says life on the land has never been so tough. \u003cbr/\u003eDrought has forced more than 10,000 Australian farmers off the land. \u003cbr/\u003eLivestock is what has kept this family farm afloat.  \u003cbr/\u003eIn two years, he estimates the drought cost him more than half a million dollars, and this season he was forced to take out a loan for the first time to cover the costs of planting and feeding his livestock.\u003cbr/\u003eAustralia is usually the world's third or fourth-largest exporter of wheat, but its exports dropped 46 percent from 2005 to 2006, then fell 24 percent last year.\u003cbr/\u003eAustralia's most important crop export  sent mostly to the Middle East and Southeast Asia to make bread and cereals was once worth over 3 billion Australian dollars per year; in 2007 it had fallen by one-third.\u003cbr/\u003eOn the other side of the Pacific ocean the dwindling march of the penguins may signal that the world's oceans are in trouble.  \u003cbr/\u003ePenguins may be the tuxedo-clad version of a canary in the coal mine, with generally ailing populations from a combination of global warming, ocean oil pollution, depleted fisheries, and tourism and development, according to a recent scientific review paper. \u003cbr/\u003eA University of Washington biologist detailed specific problems around the world with remote penguin populations, linking their decline to the overall health of southern oceans.  \u003cbr/\u003eWorking in conjunction with the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) Dr. Boersma - a biologist and one of the foremost authorities on penguin behaviour - and her volunteers have been coming to Punta Tombo for the last two decades to monitor reproduction patterns of Magellan or Patagonian penguins. \u003cbr/\u003eBoersma is the author of a paper published in the July edition of the journal Bioscience linking the decline of penguin populations to the overall health of southern oceans. \u003cbr/\u003eBoersma's monitoring project have recorded and studied over 50,000 birds since 1983 and their findings show that the colony is dwindling.\u003cbr/\u003eSince 1987 it has declined by about 23 percent with the number of breeding pairs dropping by half from about 400,000 in the late 1960s to about 200,000 in October 2006.\u003cbr/\u003eWhile Dee Boersma says we should use the information from studying penguins to change our habits, she is worried that as more humans fill the planet, less rather than more is likely to be done.\u003cbr/\u003eThe fourth report of the United Nations-sponsored International Panel on Climate Change concluded that there is an 80% probability that warming caused by humans has influenced many physical and biological systems. \u003cbr/\u003eRepresentatives from 190 countries are meeting in the Polish city of Poznan from Dec. 1-12 to work toward an ambitious new treaty that hopefully will be adopted at a meeting in Copenhagen, Denmark, in December 2009. \u003cbr/\u003eIt would replace the Kyoto Protocol, which expires in 2012.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='action-container
