Animals & Plants-
     As temperatures rise and ice melts, many
    species will be displaced. Some will be able to
    migrate, while others may die off. Overall there
    will be a reduction in the abundance of many
    species.

Endurance-
    For centuries after greenhouse gas concentrations
    are stabilized, polar regions will still cause the
    climate to change for hundreds of years, causing
    possibly irreversible impacts on ice sheets and
    ocean circulation.

Human Settlements-
    Climate change will occur most rapidly here,
    causing negative impacts on settlements dependent
    on climate (fisheries, hunting towns etc.)

Water Resources-
     Earlier spring peak flows will occur, leaving less
     water in the summer.
