A pioneering look at how climate change is affecting British
wildlife - winners, losers, new arrivals and future prospects.
There is no escaping the fact that the British climate is changing,
and our wildlife is changing with it. In this remarkable account,
Trevor Beebee examines the story so far for our plant, fungi and
animal species. Warmer and wetter winters, combined with longer
summers, have worked to the advantage of plants such as the rare
Lady Orchid, and a whole range of insects. The UK is also hosting
new arrivals that come in on the wing. But there is adversity, too.
Alpine plants and seabirds - particularly Kittiwakes - are
suffering declines as our countryside warms. Given the evidence so
far, can we predict what the future holds for our British
ecosystems? "Fascinating but frightening, compelling and concerning
... this book brings together all you need to know about how the
climate is impacting wildlife." CHRIS PACKHAM Winner of the Marsh
Book of the Year Award (2019)
