EFFECTS ON PLANTS!

As temps are increasing, plants are not able to keep up with the change.   With the seasons being longer or shorter because of the temperatures, plants growing cycles are being altered, resulting in the reproduction cycle being completely thrown off. Ultimately, this is KILLING the plant population!!!  Not only are the temperatures affecting the plants but the weather cycle is as well! With the heavy rain fall, plant fields are either flooded, or with no rain, they experience droughts.  What types of plants will be affected first? It seems that plants in the mountain and Polar Regions will be affected first because as the ICE melts away,the ground becomes warmer than the plants are used to and will not be able to adapt as quickly as they need to.Another way plants will be affected by global warming is with the extinction of animals.  So lets say that a certain type of carnivore becomes extinct.  The animals that it used to eat was an herbivore.  With the increase of herbivores, suddenly we will see the number of plants go down drastically!!  As a result of all of this, there are certain plant species that are expected to become extinct because of global warming.  

Isn't the topic of global warming refreshing ? :)
