How does climate change affect the environment?

What are the main ways climate change affects the environment?

Climate change affects the environment in several ways, including rising temperatures, changing precipitation patterns, and increased frequency of extreme weather events.

Can you explain how rising temperatures impact wildlife?

Rising temperatures can lead to habitat loss, altered migration patterns, and increased stress on species, which can threaten biodiversity.

What about the effects on oceans?

Oceans are affected by climate change through rising sea temperatures, ocean acidification, and rising sea levels, which harm marine life and ecosystems.

Are there any positive effects of climate change?

While climate change is largely negative, some regions may experience longer growing seasons. However, these benefits are often outweighed by the adverse effects.
