Animals and plants: unable to adapt, so quickly to rapid climate change, many are threatened with extinction • Human; we too must adapt to environmental change, many people are already forced to leave their homes involuntarily because agriculture, and food production are affected affected. We have to radically reduce our greenhouse gas emission and start. using renewable energy as an example solar and wind power zone. of the most effective tools, we have in the fight against climate change.
