Quotes

Even if it is technically possible to limit warming to 2 °C, that does not mean it will actually happen. "I suppose it means that 2 °C isn't quite as unattainable as it was previously thought to be, but I'm not exactly holding my breath on climate negotiations" says Annan
...The study's models showed more than half (57%±6%) of flora and one third (34%±7%) of fauna "are likely to lose ≥50% of their present climatic range by the 2080s."
"To look at a particular species would require particular study of that species and its ecology," Warren added. "Work we plan to do on pollinators will probably fill this gap; we will look globally at pollinators of agricultural crops and their projected losses."
...to climate change," Lee Hannah, a senior fellow in climate change biology at Conservation International, who wasn't involved in the research, said. "This study shows that we can greatly reduce the losers among common, well-known species by taking action to reduce climate change."
