The Big Picture
Climate change is degrading ecosystems through habitat shifts, species range contractions, reproductive disruption, wildfire, forest dieback, ocean and coastal changes, and food-system stress. The issue is the declining capacity of natural and managed ecosystems to absorb climate pressure without losing function.
Ecosystem resilience underpins food security, carbon storage, biodiversity, fisheries, agriculture, water regulation, and cultural livelihoods. Loss of resilience can also create feedbacks that worsen climate change, such as forest carbon reversal or Amazon dieback.
