Global warming is pushing wildlife over the brink. From melting sea-ice throughout the Arctic to increases in infectious diseases and loss of food, evidence of the impacts of global warming on wildlife is mounting. This index collects fact sheets on global warming's effects on threatened species.



More plants and grass are growing because most of the snow is melting and there is more space for plants to grow.

there's increased birch growth due to experimental fertilization and global warming. Global warming will promote the growth of birch at the expense of sedges, forbs, and other plants that caribou and other wildlife favor as food sources. The growth of birch trees has killed the moss that has grown in the Arctic.



Global warming is encouraging the birch tree population to increase, which is killing moss, grass, small shrubs, etc, etc. Global warming is effecting many plants and animals, and although many of the huge effects may not be felt for decades, we need to figure out a way to stop them soon.



Some plants have cup-shaped flowers that face up to the sun, so the sun's rays are directed towards the centre of the flower. These plants stay warmer than the air around them. Others are dark coloured so the plants can absorb more solar heat. Only the top layer of soil thaws out so plants have shallow roots.
