Global Warming affects Biodiversity There has always been a link between climate change and biodiversity. As the climate changes‚ the animals in the affected areas have to either adjust or leave. Although climate changes have been occurring throughout history‚ the rapid climate changes of today are resulting in species not being able to adapt quickly enough and undergoing species loss. Some species may adapt well to the climate changes such as an increase in bugs and pests‚ but others‚ such as Arctic
