World's Great Forests Could Lose Half of All Wildlife as Planet Warms

The world's greatest forests could lose more than half of their plant species by the end of the century unless nations ramp up efforts to tackle climate change, according to a new report on the impacts of global warming on biodiversity hotspots. Mammals, amphibians, reptiles, and birds, are also likely to disappear on a catastrophic scale in the Amazon and other naturally rich ecosystems in Africa, Asia, North America, and Australia, if temperatures rise by more than 1.5 degree C, concludes the study by WWF, the University of East Anglia, and the James Cook University. More than 50 per cent of all plant species in the Amazon are at risk of extinction with 3.2 degree C of warming expected under current national climate pledges.
