In 50 years, a third of them may no longer exist.Using data from surveys that studied 538 animals, insects and plants from 581 sites across the globe, researchers John J. Wiens and Cristian Román-Palacios from the University of Arizona found that approximately one in three plant, insect and animal species could face extinction by 2070. However, things could be even worse if emissions continue to rise as rapidly as they have in recent decades.
"So, think in 1 in 6 species, not 1 in 3."The researchers believe that some species loss is inevitable at this point, no matter what we do to curb greenhouse gas emissions. However, it is still possible to protect biodiversity and prevent massive species loss."I think that we should focus on preserving forests and other habitats in tropical areas, and this is part of the Paris Agreement," Wiens said.
'Course REAL science - and your own F'ing EYES - says biodiversity is INCREASED by a warmer climate. 'The diversity of plants and animals in Earth's arctic regions is moderate. Tropical latitudes in contrast are teeming with different species...'
What happened to Philip Haney?
Hogwash
Brainwashing at it’s best.
1000 new species a year are discovered. Stop trying to scare people to click
GoresHoax is not going to make the sky fall.
Good.
CillSarain Depletion of our natural environment would weaken our resilience as a species
Too bad !
Our hope is that climate change will somehow doom cnn to extinction.
You can add me to that list of not existing in 50 years as well.
And either give rise to a new species and/or allow a more hardy one to further populate: adaptation.
In 50 years CNN “could” and “may” stop posting statements that contain such words as it basically means you guys have no facts to back up your claims.
At current rates, more like 20 years! 🤔
In 50 yrs humans prob won’t exist.. Who knows what’s going to happen. Life is for living NOW.
News flash in 50 years I want exist
CNN is FEAR Porn for MORONS. Think for yourself God is in control.
What a load of garbage. No research behind it, just pure click bait
A thousand new species are discovered yearly. Stop with your never ending agitprop.
But emissions are falling. They are now down to 1994 levels.
🤷♂️ How is that, we are “all going to be dead in 9 years”
Jesus is coming back before then!
'No more flights, no more cars, no more trains, no more food, no more air, and just die. If we're not willing to lay down and die as a people, there is no way the human race can survive.'
It seems that we need to do something different.
But profits first! Said by all Republicans
I wish vegetables like asparagus, broccoli, Anderson Cooper & Don Lemon would disappear...
If that was true...which it is not...answer me this... Why are people living longer?
Bullshit
OMG, I'm shocked with the comments here... we are doomed!
No onder, stop GeoEngineering
Why do we call unspent fuel, emissions? The Earth has literally not figuratively hooked a hose to a tailpipe and closed the garage door. We need to Respend fuel properly. Major priority. djtwin
GREEN NEW DEAL
But now isn’t the time for us to be stubborn about it....let’s wait until we can hardly survive.
Where did this info come from? Please post it with your climate claims
You do know that plants thrive with more C02 right?
Yolo!
Addie97039280 China is killing all what moves!
Lies and fear mongering.
When they do you will see the DominoEffect! ClimateCrisis
This just hurts my heart. It feels like our world is falling apart.
Who cares? Humans only have 13...errrr....14 months left...according to your BS agenda...
This needs to be campaigned broadcasted and retweeted as much as possible
They are getting smarter. Claiming the end in 50 years assures they are correct for 50 years vs claiming the end in 10 years. Enough of the doom and gloom scare tactics.
I'm a raccoon and sh*t has got nothing on me.
I hope the works still exists in 50 years
The earths climate has been changing for billions of years. We have had ice ages, heat waves many times. during the dark ages we were having a mini ice age. Species die and are created all the time. No amount of taxes will stop the earth from changing.
Climate News Network is working overtime
isnt that what evolution is for? lol!
Very nice
This is heart breaking. We are killing our planet.
But I thought we had only 10 years left?...which is it?
Hopefully it's Mosquitos!!
Declare Bernie the winner you cowards
But I thought we only had 10 years left?... So which is it?..
But AOC told me we will all be dead in 12 years. This must be some kind of mistake.
No if only CNN would go extinct
Hope Liberal Media and CNN are on that list.
They will adapt. Life will find a way.
Simply Marvellous! At To The Human Limits Of Perfection And Accuracy, In Assessment And Estimation. Thanks So Much To Share.
meh, there's only one species I care about, and even nukes can't kill it off.
How much the journalist was paid for this propaganda. We know that it is so lucrative for journalist and scientific to pushed this hoax.
This is your news to run with utmost priority. Nobody’s schemes/plans matter if we lose our ecosystem.
And ? At this has been happening for billions of years. Hmmm 🤔 I wonder what happen to the dinosaurs 🦕
How do you have 538 animals, insects and plants from 581 sitese
🎸
That's for sure...
No. Because end of the world is for the weak
Good one less thing for people to bitch about.
........2070? Gee...... I can’t wait! 😘
Because of many of your sponsors.
well maybe they'll all just magically be fine at some time similar to the polar bear as 2070 gets closer
7/8.
Where do they come up with this stuff. Oh yeah, they are funded by special interest government groups. Hmmmmmmm
We should start saying climate change effects guns, they might listen finally
We must save bug s
More doomsday propaganda
This Industrial era is not working for this planet.
Hopefully mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas are one of them.
