Blue and Green: Approximately half of North Americas 650 bird species, including the bald eagle, will be disrupted by climate change over the next 65 years, a new report has found, with some expected to go extinct. The report, published by the National Audubon Society, has described the shrinking habitats and ranges of bird species to be a crisis scenario for North Americas diverse ecology. Some 126 species are expected to lose over 50% of their current ranges, in some cases the figure is 100%. However, whilst...

That`s about 21 percent of North America`s 650 or so bird species. On...

National Geographic: Climate change could threaten half of North American birds by the end of the century, according to a new study from the National Audubon Society. Half of the birds of North America are at risk of extinction, says Gary Langham, Audubons chief scientist. That estimate is based on the 314 bird species, out of 588 studied, that could lose most of the area they currently occupy, because of a warming planet. Nearly 200 of these threatened species may find hospitable conditions elsewhere, but for 126...
