The rise in global temperatures has caused the melting of glaciers and sea ice, leading to rising sea levels that can flood and destroy coastal ecosystems. b. The warming of oceans has caused coral reefs to bleach and die. c. Global warming has led to changes in the patterns of seasonal events, such as migration, which can disrupt the delicate balance of ecosystems. d. Changes in temperature can alter the abundance of plant and animal species, causing a loss of biodiversity in many ecosystems. e. Global warming has also increased the frequency and severity of extreme weather events, such as droughts, floods, and wildfires, which can devastate ecosystems and cause damage to the environment.
