Leaves of a tree are photographed in a background of crested macaques (Macaca nigra) that are foraging on the ground in Tangkoko Nature Reserve, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. A report by a team of scientists led by Marine Joly, based on research conducted since 2012 to 2020, has revealed that the temperature is increasing by up to 0.2 degree Celsius per year in Tangkoko forest, and the overall fruit abundance is also decreased. "Much of the public perception of the effects of the climate crisis is related to scenarios calculated for 2050 and beyond. Yet the effects of the climate crisis are current and can manifest not just within our lifetime, but even over a single decade, said Dr. Nicholas Pattinson, a scientist from University of Cape Town, as quoted in another publication on Newsweek. "There is rapidly growing evidence for the negative effects of high temperatures on the behavior, physiology, breeding, and survival of various bird, mammal, and reptile species around the world, " Pattinson added. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) concludes that rising temperatures have led to—among others—ecological, behavioral, and physiological changes in wildlife species and biodiversity. "In addition to increased rates of disease and degraded habitats, climate change is also causing changes in species themselves, which threaten their survival, " they wrote in a publication on IUCN.org.
