Pliocene–Pleistocene boundary extinction: 2 Ma: Possible causes include a supernova [7] [8] or the Eltanin impact [9] [10] Middle Miocene disruption: 14.5 Ma Climate change due to change of ocean circulation patterns. Milankovitch cycles may have also contributed [11] Paleogene: Eocene–Oligocene extinction event: 33.9 Ma
However, the speed of recent climate change is very fast. Due to this rapid change, for example cold-blooded animals (a category which includes amphibians, reptiles and all invertebrates) may struggle to find a suitable habitat within 50 km of their current location at the end of this century (for a mid-range scenario of future global warming).

A team of researchers from Mainland China and Hong Kong were able to establish a causal connection between climate change and large-scale human crises in pre-industrial times. Short-term crises may be caused by social problems, but climate change was the ultimate cause of major crises, starting with economic depressions. [30]
"Climate emergency is intensifying, we are on the front lines," Mohamed Nasheed, the president of the Maldives, said. These countries have warned they face extinction. They hope climate report is ...
Scientists have long been warning that human-propelled climate change would result in animal extinctions and now that prediction has likely come to pass. Australian rodent becomes first known ...
While the penguins are not under immediate threat of extinction, climate change greatly threatens their future. Experts fear that if Antarctica’s temperatures rise by even 3.5 degrees F, it will ...
Dresbachian extinction event 486.85: Cambrian–Ordovician extinction event: 450–440: Ordovician–Silurian extinction event, in two bursts, after cooling perhaps caused by tectonic plate movement 450: Andean-Saharan glaciation: 360–260: Karoo Ice Age: 305: Cooler climate causes Carboniferous rainforest collapse: 251.9: Permian–Triassic ...
Climate change has contributed to the expansion of drier climate zones, such as the expansion of deserts in the subtropics. [219] The size and speed of global warming is making abrupt changes in ecosystems more likely. [220] Overall, it is expected that climate change will result in the extinction of many species. [221]
