The world is getting warmer thanks to human activities, and temperatures at the poles are rising significantly faster than the global average.
Hotter temperatures means less sea ice.
And for emperor penguins, which rely on sea ice for breeding and as places to rest, it means fewer penguins are surviving.
Twice in recent years, the ice has broken up early, causing thousands of chicks to drown in the frigid water.
The International Union for the Conservation of Nature says emperor penguins are now considered to be endangered, Antarctic fur seals as well.
Scientists involved in the analysis say urgent action is needed to reduce climate-warming pollution.
