The variety of animal species found in locations across the globe could be cut by more than quarter by the end of the century, a new study finds.

abc.net.au/news/computer-modelling-shows-cascading-animal-coextinctions/101777762Computer modelling has shown the variety of vertebrate animal species found in locations across the globe could be cut by 27 per cent by the end of the century.Extinctions caused by other extinctions were also considered in the study

The simulation conducted on one of Europe's most powerful supercomputers also found that one extinction caused a cascade of extinctions that have been coined "co-extinctions". The study by European Commission scientist Giovanni Strona and Flinders University professor Corey Bradshaw was published on Saturday in the journal Science Advances.

Professor Bradshaw said it was clear from the research that carbon emission reduction policies needed to focus on the planet as a whole."It also works the other way round: if we save more species, we're going to have more capability in reducing climate change over the next century or so."Professor Bradshaw said neglecting the effect of co-extinctions had caused people to be overly optimistic about how many species would be lost.

The computer modules have failed so many times! GIGO

I read that in twelve years nearly all elephants will die from Climate Change of COVID unless you donate 20% of your income to the Democratic party.

Then do something about abc. Turn off your power to all abc office building and all employers and employees invest in riding horses instead of driving your 100000k + 4wd Mercedes A classes

Great. Let's hope dogs are first followed by cats, then sharks, then all shitting birds. Bring it on!

Same modelling program that predicted the Covid19 spread and fatality rate? Unreliable.

Trust me, I am a computer model 🤣

Are these the same people that predicted the world would be experiencing millions of climate refugees by now?

The left will never let a good crisis go to waste…

Total BS

This media phrase 'computer modelling' used to sound like the word of god making infallible predictions until people realised computer modelling is used to power things like text autocorrect.

Another could be!

Stop spreading misinformation & lies. Every species extinction in Australia has been caused by feral animals with cats & fox's dominating the extinctions. Go ask a Bilby whether he's worried about climate change of that cat that's approaching him. Leftards

Climate change, the world’s biggest fraud aiming to take people’s land ownership away.

My computer modelling predicts my 3 month old dog will be 500Kgs in 4 years. I’d better start preparing 😳

False news!!! You should not be spreading it ABC!! Trying to increase anxiety?

What a load of 💩

Garbage in garbage out

Biodiversity loss and environmental decline are major threats to human well being but there is a lot we can do to care for country and to help turn that around. That is what COP15 is meant to be all about.

Don't you love climate models. One day perhaps they will be accurate. Manipulated science

Computer modelling also predicts the 7 day forecast , which it gets wrong most of the time . No one believes the bs anymore .

Yawn!!! lies lies damn lies

Raving loony on street corner predicts mass human extinction caused by fusion powered brain extraction machines funded by the Green ASIO.

And computer modelling has been such a reliable guide for us in all things over the past years! I have a model which tells me that the ABC will publish at least one climate catastrophe story per week! Its been pretty accurate so far!

Computer modelling predicted sea level rises that would flood a good portion of Australia by now and that kids wouldn't see snow after 2020.

It’s been changing for milllions of years. But now labour and the greens will fix it with higher taxes and energy bills. What a joke

The lying Marxist Left can predict anything they want with their magic crystal balls, such as polar bears being extinct by 2008. They are using extrapolation which is NOT science.

Lies, damn lies, statistics… and the mother of them all, *modelling* 🤪

Crap data in, crap predictions out.

So no need to cull our cats and dogs as Klaus Schwab wants

All the climate change denying cookers on here...

I'm not convinced the scientists should publish these climate change modellings. So many of their predictions have failed to happen over the last 2 decades it's not helping. Obviously most have stopped believing the scientists the planets emissions are actually increasing. 🤔

Australia already has the highest number of extinct species of animals in the world 🌎 and counting 😆

Same modelling the said EVEN THE RAIN THAT FALLS WILL NOT BE ENOUGH TO FILL OUR DAMS

This is the problem with not standing up to BS people... 'computer modelling' with covid was used to scare and was always a long way from the truth.. same rubbish being used here. Don't be fooled again!!

Computer modelling can tell you anything you want it to

same modelling as covid

Computer models have failed, the climate is fine: bumper snow, barrier reef RECORD coral, polar bears THRIVING, Antarctica RECORD cold, Arctic NOT ice-free, DECLINE in extreme weather events, atolls NOT sinking, ice-shelves NOT collapsing, sea-level NOT rising climatescam

I think the root cause is overpopulation, groups of uneducated people breeding out of control, and expecting to be financially supported in order to do so.
