New study reveals insight into which animals are most vulnerable to extinction due to climate change
Past climate change (often caused by natural changes in greenhouse gases due to volcanic activity) has been responsible for countless species’ extinctions during the history of life on Earth. But, to date, it has not been clear what factors cause species to be more or less resilient to such change, and how the magnitude of climate change affects extinction risk. The results of a new study could help to identify species most at risk today from human-driven climate change.
