Readers will learn that as global temperatures continue to rise, ecosystems all over the world are at risk. Islands and mountains are among the most vulnerable, and many species are expected to go extinct. Polar regions are warming at close to twice the rate of the rest of the world, impacting marine and terrestrial life as well as global climate patterns.
