Climate change could push seabirds into smaller habitats and force them to fly farther to survive, a new study said Tuesday. “Every time, when the climate changed faster… the range of distribution (of seabirds) started to decrease, to contract, to be smaller,” Jorge Avaria-Llautureo, lead author of the study in the journal Nature Climate Change, told AFP. Driven by planet-heating fossil fuel emissions, climate change is raising global temperatures and disrupting marine ecosystems as oceans get warmer.
