Passage Three If the earth gets hotter in the new century,
what will happen to animals and the plants which animals depend on for
survival? The question offers another way of looking at the “Greenhouse
Effect”. People have talked about the general problem of “Global Warming” for
some time. But they were usually worried about things like whether to buy a
home on the coast. Biologists and other scientists turn their attention to
plants and animals at an important meeting that took place last October. They
were reviewed evidence that plants and animals are sensitive to climate. Since
the Ice Age ended ten thousand years ago and warmer temperatures returned to
the northern latitudes, many species have migrated north. If the predictions
about the Greenhouse are correct, temperatures will rise by the same amount in
the next one hundred years as they did in the past ten thousand. Will animals
and plants be able to adapt that quickly to change in the environment? Many won’t.
Certain species will probably become very rare. Experts say plants under
climate stress will be very open to disease and fire. Question 17: What is the concern of ordinary people about the “Greenhouse Effect”? Question 18: What has happened since the end of the ICE AGE? Question 19: What will be a possible threat to plants in |
