The influence of animals on the weather

The influence of animals on the weather is as follows:

First, animals become smaller:

Scientists studying fossils found that with the increase of temperature, the size of animals began to shrink gradually. This is because small size can reduce energy consumption and has the advantage of living in a warm environment. However, under some conditions, the smaller the scale, the destruction of food webs and genocide.

Second, the fur color:

In the long process of evolution, in order to adapt to the snowfall in winter, Arctic animals will turn their fur white to adapt to the environment. However, as the weather gets warmer and the snow melts, the white fur at this time makes them easier to find.

Third, super insects:

Many studies have shown that global warming will mutate insects such as mosquitoes and produce a new mosquito species, which will carry more infectious diseases, which is a disaster for animals, especially people.

Fourth, turtle nature:

Studies have shown that the proportion of females in green turtles began to increase because of the rising temperature. Generally speaking, the proportion of females in turtles is 50%, but due to the increase of temperature, this proportion has become 70%. This will increase the number of green turtles nesting, but also because of the temperature, the risk of unsuccessful egg hatching will increase.

Five, coral disappear:

Because of ocean acidification caused by climate warming, the minerals that make up coral reefs in seawater are gradually decreasing, and coral reefs cannot grow normally, and will gradually decrease, and the rate of decrease will gradually accelerate. It is speculated that one third of coral reefs have disappeared.

Six, shark attack:

With the warming of the climate, the frequency of sharks attacking humans is also increasing. But in the past, scientists thought that sharks would not take the initiative to attack humans under normal circumstances. It can be seen that because of the climate, it also has a certain influence on the shark's personality.

Precautions:

Climate warming is a matter worthy of our attention, and it is a major event related to human life and death.
