Global Warming Is Shrinking the Plants and Animals
I haven't noticed.New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/28/2011 -- A recent profile study made an important discovery for future plants and animals on Earth: accelerating global warming caused by human activities decreases the size of all species of plants and animals. The most obvious example is that of polar bears, which large specimens have not been seen for two decades in the wild.
Climate changes not only have a major impact on human populations, but also on sources of food such as cereals or ocean fish banks. The species of wild animals that can not adapt quickly enough to climate changes are at the most risk of extinction, with dramatic changes to ecosystems in which they lived.
Researchers believe that a warmer and more arid climate will decrease the size of plants and animals, mainly due to decrease of water resources in their ecosystems.
Over the past century, several types of animals, including turtles, tits, frogs or deers are becoming increasingly smaller.
