The Upland Sandpiper is found all across the United States‚ including Alaska‚ Central America‚ and parts of South America during the migration period. What’s special about these areas are their grasslands. Upland Sandpipers live best in flat‚ grassy areas. Other organisms that live in this region are coyotes‚ gophers‚ and foxes.

Global warming has destroyed nearly 40% of the worlds species‚ melted all the ice caps in the arctic leading to increase sea levels and dangerous threats towards coastal cities. Hurricanes and typhoons pummel wet‚ hot climates such as the U.S. Gulf coast‚ the eastern seaboard and parts of Southeast Asia. The cities and infrastructures that we built in the past are deteriorating‚ clearly not created for the purpose of survival in this foreign climate. It is too little too late for the political sphere
