The ecological implications of climate change are profound, affecting species distributions, habitat loss, and ecosystem functioning. Altered temperature and precipitation patterns can lead to shifts in plant and animal populations, pushing species to adapt, migrate, or face extinction. Ecosystems may experience disruptions in interdependent relationships, such as predator-prey dynamics and the availability of resources. Additionally, climate change exacerbates issues like deforestation, ocean acidification, and loss of biodiversity, leading to long-term consequences for both natural environments and human livelihoods.
