Climate Adaptation Difficult for Europe's Birds

Climate Adaptation Difficult for Europe's Birds

Reference- http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/01/120116095527.htm

Summary- For the past twenty years the climate in Europe has been getting warmer. Species of bird and butterfly which thrive in cool temperatures therefore need to move further north. However they have difficulty adapting to warmer climate quickly enough. As shown by new research. During this period Europe has become warmer and set temperatures have shifted northward by 250 km. Both of the bird and butterfly respond to the climate change but not fast enough to keep up with an increasingly warm climate.

Critique- I think that the climate is changing so fast that the animals don’t have enough time to adapt to the rapid change in climate in Europe. The climate in Europe is changing too fast for the animals to adapt to it.

Impact- This affects the animals because of how the climate is changing so fast that they can’t adapt to the climate.
