The Known Effects Of Climate On Vegetation And Wildlife

By Eric Brown


Sea levels are rising, glaciers are melting, and oceans around the globe continue to become warmer with each passing second. All this is due to the negative effects of climate on vegetation and wildlife. The reality today is that droughts are becoming frequent and more severe than in past years. Their increased occurrence poses a threat to crops, wildlife, and human beings.

A changing climate poses a serious threat to livelihoods, species, and places that environmentalists have for long always tried to protect. To be able to address this looming crisis, there is a need to reduce the effects associated with carbon pollution as well as prepare for the consequences that will come with continued global warming. Some of these consequences have already started being felt in different places across the globe.

Carbon dioxide is a green gas that is known to assist in trapping heat in the air. When too much heat is trapped, the temperatures start to rise. Traditionally, the gases have always been present in the atmosphere since time immemorial. But the increased actions of human beings have caused them to be increase to alarming levels. Humans continue to worsen the situation by clearing forests and burning fossil fuels in an attempt to help produce more energy.

When the greenhouse gases get into the atmosphere, they slowly start to form a blanket. As everybody knows, a thick blanket is always able to generate more heat as compared to a thinner one. The concentration of these gases in the air has, therefore, caused the planetary temperatures to start rising. Oceans and seas have started to absorb the gases, which causes them to become acidic.

Changes in weather patterns can be traced back to an increase in global temperatures. Rising temperatures are causing weather patterns to change. As a result, it has become harder for weathermen to predict rainfalls and oncoming droughts. It has also led to the increased occurrence of heat waves, especially here in the United States as was witnessed in last half of 2018.

At the moment, scientists are in agreement that humans are to blame for the changes in climatic conditions. They have been able to reach a consensus that human activity is to blame for temperature change and that global warming is, in fact, quite real. Respected environmental bodies across the globe have all identified weather change as a serious threat that ought to be addressed sooner rather than later.

Humans have for many years resorted to burning different types of fossil fuels to produce the energy required to run various industries. What they are not taking into account is the effect that these processes have on the surrounding environment. Estimates indicate that about 700 tons of carbon dioxide gases are released into the air each second.

Taking all this into account, it is clear that wild animals, plant species, and humans are increasingly facing new survival challenges due to weather changes. Intense droughts, warming oceans, storms, melting glaciers, rising sea levels, and heat waves can all harm animals. This is in addition to wreaking havoc on communities, destroying the environment, and getting rid of animal habitats. Temperate changes are causing dangerous weather events to become severe and more frequent.
