Future climate and land use threaten terrestrial diversity

Key Points

This research aims to quantify the impacts of climate and land use changes on terrestrial vertebrate diversity.
Quantitative analysis of future climate scenarios
Assessment of land use changes
Regional comparisons of biodiversity effects
Pronounced regional differences in vertebrate diversity impacts
Identification of scenarios that may mitigate or exacerbate effects
Highlighting the urgent need for transformative actions to halt biodiversity loss

Abstract

Climate and land use change are major threats to biodiversity. Hari et al. quantify their combined impacts on future terrestrial vertebrate diversity, revealing pronounced regional differences and potential mitigating or exacerbating effects under different scenarios, underscoring the need for transformative climate and land use actions to halt biodiversity loss.
