It refers to the variety and variation in living organisms, their species, and their habitats. Global warming has emerged as a great threat to biodiversity. As the planet is warming up, plants and animals are trying to adapt to their changing environments. However, the pace of change is so fast that some living organisms are not being able to cope up with the challenges of nature. This is making some species vulnerable to extinction. Not only rising temperatures but also changes in rainfall patterns, breeding seasons, as well as the reducing interaction between animals and plants have endangered many species. It is believed that if global temperatures rise by over 3.5°C, up to 70 percent of the world's known species would go extinct."-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Changing oceans and seas -- Struggling life in the oceans -- Melting poles -- Polar life -- Plants in danger -- Forests at risk -- Threat to wildlife -- Amphibians facing peril -- Reptiles in trouble -- Insects around the world -- Impact on butterflies -- Impact on birds -- Impact on migration -- Impact on hibernation -- Climate change affects all. 650 0 $a Biodiversity $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Nature $x Effect of human beings on $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Climatic changes $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Endangered species $v Juvenile literature. 650 7 $a Biodiversity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01429860 650 7 $a Climatic changes. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00864229 650 7 $a Endangered species. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00909658 650 7 $a Nature $x Effect of human beings on. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01034564 655 7 $a Juvenile works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411637 941 $a 2 952 $l BNPD611 $d 20210323011005.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20200208011428.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C64FF642DF5911E9BD2BF46B97128E48 994 $a C0 $b JIWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
