Environment and Climate Change

Climate Change and Biodiversity

Healthy ecosystems require a vast assortment of plant and animal life, from soil microbes to top-level predators like bears and wolves. “The variability among living organisms from different sources including terrestrial, marine, aquatic ecosystems etc. The ecological includes diversity within species, between species and of ecosystems. If any of the species is removed from this environment, it can harm the ecosystem.

In the last century, the average global temperature has increased by 0.80°C (1.44°F), rain pattern has changed, natural disaster event has increased, melting of polar caps and rise in sea level. Many changes have been reported, the reaction of species to changing situations is likely to be decided generally by population reactions at edges. Over the past years, a few models have been created to view the effect of climate change on biodiversity. Results from these models have recommended a few disturbing results of climate change on biodiversity, predicting the future results. There is enough proof that climate change influences biodiversity.
