Climate Change and Past History of the Earth and Its Biota

The effect of climate change on the biota of the earth since the past is immense. It has been regulating the distribution of species in the world and caused extinction of many species. Moreover, the effects of global climate change from natural and human perspective (human population growth, industrialization, land-use and agricultural activities and biodiversity loss and poverty) on species are increasing in recent years. The main impacts of climate change are environmental deterioration, seasonal change and effects on distribution of basic resources and biotic potential of species. As a result it needs global attention to adapt and mitigate the situation.
