Climate Change Will Cause Widespread Global-Scale Loss of Common Plants and Animals, Researchers Predict

ScienceDaily: More than half of common plants and one third of the animals could see a dramatic decline this century due to climate change, according to research from the University of East Anglia. This means that geographic ranges of common plants and animals will shrink globally and biodiversity will decline almost everywhere. Plants, reptiles and particularly amphibians are expected to be at highest risk. Sub-Saharan Africa, Central America, Amazonia and Australia would lose the most species of plants...

Climate change forecast to shrink habitat of common plants, animals

Reuters: The habitats of many common plants and animals will shrink dramatically this century unless governments act quickly to cut rising greenhouse gas emissions, scientists said on Sunday after studying 50,000 species around the world. The scientists from Britain, Australia and Colombia said plants, amphibians and reptiles were most vulnerable as global temperatures rise and rainfall patterns change. About 57 percent of plants and 34 percent of animal species were likely to lose more than half the area...

Common plants, animals threatened by climate change, study says

LA Times: Climate change could lead to the widespread loss of common plants and animals around the world, according to a new study released Sunday in the journal Nature Climate Change. The study's authors looked at 50,000 common species. They found that more than half the plants and about a third of the animals could lose about 50% of their range by 2080 if the world continues its current course of rising greenhouse gas emissions. Climate change affects the availability of nutrition and water for animals...

Steep decline for plants and animals
2013-05-12 19:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
BBC: More than half of common plant species and a third of animals could see a serious decline in their habitat range because of climate change. New research suggests that biodiversity around the globe will be significantly impacted if temperatures rise more than 2C. But the scientists say that the losses can be reduced if rapid action is taken to curb greenhouse gases. The paper is published in the journal, Nature Climate Change. An international team of researchers looked at the impacts...
