A lot changes in nature – which is the animals’ home – when the climate gets warmer. So we humans need to do what we can. Spin the wheel to see how we can help the agile frog, trout, bumblebee and greylag goose.
Agile frog
Problem
When the climate gets warmer, pools of water can dry out, and frogs and toads need those pools to lay their eggs. Tadpoles live in water for their first months of life.
What can we do?
To help the agile frog, we need to establish more wetlands and pools of water where frogs and toads can lay their eggs.
Greylag goose
Problem
As the climate gets warmer, more and more greylag geese don’t bother flying south for the winter. They stay in Sweden and eat the farmers’ crops.
What can we do?
Farmers can scare the birds away from their crops and attract them to areas where they can eat without causing harm. But the most important thing is to slow down climate change.
Bumblebee
Problem
When spring comes early, the bumblebee can come out of hibernation too early. Because the flowers haven’t started blooming yet, the bumblebee has difficulty finding food.
What can we do?
We need to preserve our natural flowering lands and create new ones. Make your own meadow or plant flowers the bumblebees can pollinate.
Trout
Problem
Trout thrive in colder waters. As the climate warms up, there is a risk that many watercourses will become too warm and the trout will abandon them.
What can we do?
To help the trout, we need to remove obstacles to their migration. And create areas of cool water with gravel where they can spawn.
