RedOrbit: More than half of the bird species in North America, including the bald eagle and the official birds of eight US states, are being seriously threatened by global climate change, the National Audubon Society revealed in a new report published on Tuesday. According to the study, 126 species will lose at least half of their current ranges by 2050, and will have no chance to relocate if global warming continues on its current trajectory. An additional 188 species will experience more than 50 percent...

Climate change could leave sharks unable to hunt

Its not the birds themselves that are endangered, its the places that they live -- the lakes, the forests, the grasslands -- that are at risk. As those areas disappear, so will the birds that nest there. In real estate, its location, location, location, said Bob Janssen, the author of several books about birds in Minnesota.

San Francisco Chronicle: Dozens of Bay Area bird types, including owls, hawks, shorebirds and such signature species as the brown pelican and golden eagle, are in jeopardy because of climate change, a study by the National Audubon Society revealed Tuesday. The seven-year study of North American birds found that more than 300 avian species - nearly half the birds on the continent - will be in dire straits by 2080 unless something is done to reduce carbon emissions. The list of birds on the brink includes common Bay...
