How does climate change affect wildlife in ontario?
I
Isaura F
Instructor"In Ontario, [one] can expect average temperatures to rise by as much as 3 to 8 degrees Celsius over the next century. Warmer temperatures will result in milder winters, longer growing seasons and a higher frequency of severe weather events such as record-breaking storms, floods, droughts and heat waves."
