Abstract

Background: Emperor penguins are one of the species that their life a affects by climate change. They are part of the ecosystem. As a human, we need to know about the condition of the other living things as the effects of this climate change. This journal review wants to prove that the life of emperor penguins are in danger from any aspect because of climate change. Based on a study, the researcher tries to protect the penguins and does several methods to protect them. The researcher also uses the future climate projections to know the condition in the future. Some of the research used the thermal effects test, and observe the model habitat suitability. If the global emissions continue to increase, there is look like no future for emperor penguins. We need to know that every little thing of our action towards this climate change affects the other living things. Therefore, as a human, we need to be more aware of what happens around us. This research objective is to explore more about how climate change affects the emperor penguins' life and why we should care about it. Methods: This research used the literature review method. Two concept approaches were used in this journal review. Findings: The first is about the habitat, life cycle, and how the emperor penguins lived. The second is about the impact and what changes in their life. The result showed that there is a change in the life of emperor penguins, and their existence is endangered due to climate change effects. Conclusion: Emperor penguin is a part of our ecosystem. As a part of this earth, we need to know what is going on around us. We need to know that not only our life that affects by climate change but also the other living things. We could know what kind of actions that we can take to help the emperor penguins' life so they will not decline in the future which can affect life on this earth.
