Climate Change and Its Impacts on Biodiversity:

Climate change, driven largely by human activities such as the burning of


fossil fuels and deforestation, is having profound effects on
biodiversity worldwide. Rising temperatures, shifting precipitation
patterns, and more frequent extreme weather events are disrupting
ecosystems and causing changes in the distribution and behavior of
species. For example, many species are experiencing changes in migration
patterns and reproductive cycles, while others are facing increased risk
of extinction due to habitat loss and fragmentation. Additionally, ocean
acidification and warming are threatening marine biodiversity, including
coral reefs and fisheries. Addressing climate change and mitigating its
impacts are essential for protecting biodiversity and ensuring the long-
term health of ecosystems.
