The El Nino Phenomenon
Again we’re having a warm winter in here . The global warming is due to the El Nino . It is what we call the Pacific Ocean warm water phenomenon . In fact El Nino is the Spanish name for baby Jesus . Do you know why it is called that ? That is because warm water moving across the Pacific traditionally reaches South America at around Christmas . Scientists have now used the term El Nino for the major warming periods over large South America coastal areas and areas west of the equator （赤道）and the Dateline （日期变更线）. The El Nino comes every 4 or 5 years and lasts between 12-18 months . It brings extremely bad weather like storms , drought etc . It sets fire on rain forests and burns lots of them . So we should encourage people to make a donation （损助）for the protection of our planet . We’re responsible for lots of environmental problems and human activities have killed so many animals and plants on the earth . And all species （物种）depend in some way on each other to survive . So if we lose one of them , some others might die as the result . This makes things even worse . We’ve got one planet only . If we make a mess of it , we can’t move to another .
