Tropical birds ‘face extinction’
News and Stuff March 5th, 2012
BBC News reports here: “Between 600 and 900 species of tropical birds could become extinct by 2100 due to climate change, researchers say.”
“People who go bird watching in the tropics can gather very useful data, given that the current data that we have is basically pretty poor in many parts of the world. Amateur bird watchers can really make an important contribution.”
