Steve Milloy has some good questions for climate hoax promoter Ilya Maclean

High extinction risk from climate change? | JunkScience.com
...Maclean responded:
Our study does not make the claim that there are existing examples in which climate change has caused/will cause species extinction so I cannot provide you with these.
Three hours after receiving that response, I followed up with these questions:
How do you reconcile your statement (in the abstract) about your study providing “strong empirical support for the assertion that anthropogenic climate change is now a major threat to global biodiversity” with the absence of actual examples?

Are you saying that a meta-analysis of unverified predictions constitutes empirical evidence that climate change threatens biodiversity?
Maclean responded as follows:
I am out of office until Tuesday 12th July.
