Although it will be hard for species to adapt to the new temperature and weather conditions, most species will be able to survive the conditions. Species can survive to live on coldness than hotness. Some may elvolve to become some new species in order to adapt to the new environment.u13127846

for me this is controversial,Schneider paper is very complicated,the findings are not the same.I Disagree with the findings that global warming cause of natural disasters in hemisphere,earth can have some changes now and again.

Global warming refers to the increase in the global average temperature. These increases throw weather systems out of balance which can result in extreme changes in weather patterns, which can include extreme heat or cold outbreaks coupled to droughts and periods of intense heat.

I think that although the climate is getting increasingly warmer, I believe that nature could be very unpredictable and that we can not for certain say that cold outbreaks will become less common. 15055940

In my opinion i do think that cold outbreaks will be less common because the weather seems to be getting hot and hotter every year. Another reason is that the Earth is getting close to the sun as it orbits everyday.

I agree that planet earth will embrace the changes, but will organisms such as the human race do so also? Global warming is a serious case and wether it changes the weather and its cold outbreaks or not we are responsible for it and will have numerous effects on the whole society.

I think that evolution is linked to global warming because as the global temperature changes due to global warming the living conditions of animals also change. Over time this will cause animals to evolve to become better suited to their environment

GregH there are so many things that nature can do without science predicting them. Evolution might take place in a faster rate than we anticipated, maybe stimulated by global warming. Remember that Niles Eldredge and Stephen Jay Gould’s theory of punctuated equilibrium is still a theory that was never disproved!

Percy, do you think that the changing climate will be good for plants and animals that are adapted for cooler temperatures? How will warmer temperatures affect agriculture?

Do you have an idea how many generations it might take for new human species to evolve?
