The document outlines several ways that climate change could impact key areas like biodiversity, agriculture, forests, weather, water resources, human health, sea levels and coastal areas, and human population. It notes potential effects such as the extinction of species and loss of habitats, shifts in food growing areas and poor crop yields, changes in forest composition and increased wildfires, more extreme weather events, variations in water supply and quality, rising sea levels and flooding of coastal lands, and increased deaths, diseases, and migration.
