The linkage between microorganisms, macroscopic organisms and climate change are

observed through the roles they take account on each other, as well as their consequent effects.
One perspective to help us elucidate the connection is how human activities influence
microorganisms that take part in marine and terrestrial biomes situations affected by climate
change. Microbial interactions with other microbes, plants and animals that results to one of
microorganisms’ response such as greenhouse gas emissions, can be influenced by human
activities like population growth and agriculture. In relation, greenhouse effect has occurred and
caused climate change since these macroscopic organisms generated factors have increased
more than what microbes can respond to. In turn, the unpredictable environmental
temperature fluctuations have also impacted microbial responses. Moreover, to elaborately
explain this correlation, we know that agriculture is a human doing and practices under this
aspect produce pollution in such form like fertilizers for plant cultivation, and it take effects on
microorganisms as it will disturb their community composition and function leading to changes
on natural cycles of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus transformation. On a contrary note,
although altered microorganismal responses influenced by human activities are responsible as
the main contributor of greenhouse gases, numerous studies have revealed that an in-depth
knowledge about their interaction can also bring forth mitigation plans that will help control the
effects of climate change.
