species at risk of extinction
One in six species is at risk of extinction because of climate change.
Damaged Corals
Rising temperatures and acidity within our oceans is contributing to extreme coral bleaching events, like the 2016 event that destroyed more than one-third of the Great Barrier Reef.
Changing rain and snow patterns
Reduced rainfall and increasingly severe droughts may lead to water shortages.
Less snow and ice
Stronger storms
Extreme weather events like bush-fires, cyclones, droughts and floods are becoming more frequent and more intense as a result of global warming.
Changes in animals migrations and life cycles
More droughts and wildfires
Rising sea levels
Warmer temperatures also result in the expansion of the water’s mass, which causes sea levels to rise, threatening low-lying islands and coastal cities.
Changes in Plant life cycles
Damage to homes
Increasingly severe extreme weather events like bush-fires, storms, floods, cyclones and coastal erosion, will see increased damage to homes,
