what did I found a direct correlation between global warming
and biological change somewhere .global warming is, in fact, having a significant impact on animal and plant populations .
habitat loss
Migrating due to habitat loss
Some animals like chipmunks and squirrels which tend to live in the mountains, in the 1990s, now we can find them in some hills.
Where is my home?
As the temperature rise, the earth‘s poles (极 点) island fate snow melt can lead to rising sea levels, many islands will be drowned, some island may not exist.

Extinction
A report from 《Nature 》 says global warming will lead to the world a quarter of terrestrial wildlife ( more than 100 million species) be extinct in the next 50 years.
Ice is melting! It’s time to run!
北极植物迁移
2007年 6月15日的《科学》杂志发表 文章称，许多北极植物不断地开拓新 的领地，这表明人类活动导致的全球 变暖已经引起了植物生存气候条件的 重新分布，北极植物的广泛迁移可能 是该区域对于剧烈气候波动自然倾向 进化的结果。
biological rhythm
Our overall analysis of studies involving temperate-zone species revealed that springtime events -such as blooming, egg laying and the end of hibernation -- now occur about 5.1 days earlier per decade on average.
Ecological imbalance
Global warming lead to forests eaten by a large numbers of pests
Near Alaska since the mid-1970s, about 50% of the nearly 1 million acres (400,000 hectares) of mature spruce trees succumbed Kenai Peninsula spruce bark bst. I ,not only as a human but also as a representative of animals and plants ,strongly recommend that we human beings should take actions now to save our world！
美国山区植物“移民”疑与全球气候变暖 有关
一项最新研究显示，美国加利福尼亚州南部山区有 大量植物死亡，有些灭绝。另有9种植物生长范围海拔 上升。专家认为这一现象或许与全球变暖有关。
植物“移民”
专家发现，位于较低海拔的树木和灌木大量死亡，而 高海拔地区则林木繁盛。
另类警告
美国亚利桑那大学生态学家特拉维斯·赫克斯曼说， 植物生长海拔高度上升速度远比科学家想象的快，这对 人类是一个警告。
