We found a growing media interest in wildlife problems from earlier analyses, at least partly generated by growing awareness of the risks to wildlife posed by global warming, a hot media topic. Scientists were rarely directly reported, but when they were...

However it is not widely appreciated that the world is facing unavoidable warming even if greenhouse emissions were reduced to zero (Solomon et al. 2009).
