Does climate change effect ecosystems and wildlife in present day, or is the change in ecosystems and wildlife caused from other reasons like over population and the business industries. I believe that the cause for change in our ecosystems and wildlife today is because of climate change. One reason I believe this is true is because tens of thousands of Adelie penguins have died in Antarctic, this is because ice no longer extends far enough into the sea for them to reach their breeding grounds. Another concern are the Polar Bears. Since the ice in the Arctics is melting at a steady pace the Polar Bears can no longer go out on the ice to hunt seals and are falling through the ice and drowning. This is causing them to adapt to the land and to find new food sources. The ecosystems of the certain Tigers that live in the mangrove islands in the Sundarbans of India are in trouble. They say by the 2020 that a dozen islands will disappear beneath rising seas. All because of a couple degrees of temperature change world wide. Turtles are one of the most effected animals. This is because the temperature of the sand determines the sex of the turtle. If the sand is cool it produces males if the sand is hot it produces females. Climate change is real and is effecting the world we live in today.
