Climate Warms Leads to the Shrinking of Animals and Plants

As we know, people cannot survive without animals and plants. In this world, everything relates and depends on each other. We learned in my high school biochemistry class that the ecosystem is one of the most important things in the world. Jennifer Sheridan and David Bickford (researchers) point out that climate change induced warmer temperatures. The rising temperature may cause habitats to change and, therefore, are possible culprits in the case of the shrinking number of creatures. Among all animals, cold-blooded animals change dramatically because of the global warming. Also, the experiment points out warm weather will lead to fewer fish. In conclusion, animals and plants can not respond to the global warming fast enough. Thus, the changing temperature will affect animals and plants and, in turn, humans in a long run.

  1. This is something that is very important and something I find interesting, I hope more people take notice to what is going on with our climate change and changes start to take place in a way we can stop the outcome. If we continue on this course, which you mention, could affect the animals in plants which will ultimately affect humans.
