"Life on Earth is so diverse because it’s so adaptable: Temperatures go
up or down, and a species might move into a new habitat and evolve to
become something different over time. But what we humans have unleashed
on this planet is unparalleled. “We’re experiencing something on the
order of 1,000 times faster change in temperature than what was seen in
paleo times,” says Radchuk. “There are limits to these adaptive
responses, and the lag is getting too big.”"
