To begin with, climate change is bad for many businesses.

Climate change

The effects of a warmer world are visible in animals' bodies

地球变暖的影响正体现在动物身体上

For humans, adapting to climate change will mostly be a matter of technology. More air conditioning, better-designed houses and bigger flood defences may help ameliorate the effects of a warmer world. Animals will h*e to rely on changing their bodies or their beh*iour.

对人类而言，适应气候变化在大多情况下终究是技术问题。更多的空调系统、设计得更加巧妙的房屋以及更大的防洪设备或许就能帮助减少地球变暖的影响。而动物将不得不依赖于改变它们的身体或行为（来适应气候变化）。

In a paper published in Trends in Ecology& Evolution, a team led by Sara Ryding, a PhD candidate at Deakin University, in Australia, shows that is already happening. Climate change is already altering the bodies of many animal species, giving them bigger beaks, limbs and ears.

在一篇发表于《生态学与进化趋势》的文章中，澳大利亚迪肯大学的在读博士生萨拉·莱丁带领的团队证明，这种现象已经在发生。气候变化已经在改变许多动物物种的身体，使它们的喙、四肢和耳朵变得更大。

In some species of Australian parrot, for instance, beak size has increased by between 4% and 10% since 1871. Similar trends are seen in mammals, with species of mice, shrews and bats evolving bigger ears, tails, legs and wings.

例如，在某些种类的澳大利亚鹦鹉身上，喙的大小从 1871年起增大了 4%到 10%。类似的趋势也出现在哺乳动物中：一些种类的老鼠、鼩鼱和蝙蝠进化出了更大的耳朵、尾巴、腿和翅膀。

All that dovetails nicely with evolutionary theory.”Allen's rule”, named for Joel Asaph Allen, who suggested it in 1877, holds that warm-blooded animals in hot places tend to h*e larger appendages than those in temperate regions.

所有那些现象都和进化论非常吻合。乔尔·阿萨夫·艾伦在 1877年提出了“艾伦法则”（以艾伦命名）。这项法则认为，炎热地区的温血动物往往比温带地区的长有更大的附器。

Such adaptations boost an animal's surface area relative to its body volume, helping it to shed excess heat. Being richly endowed with blood vessels, and not covered by insulating feathers, beaks make an ideal place for birds to dispose of heat.***

这样的适应性变化增加了动物相对其体积的表面积，帮助它消散过多的热量。鸟喙长有大量的血管，且不被隔热的羽毛覆盖，成为鸟类理想的散热器官。

Studying a broader range of animals will help firm up exactly what is happening. Much of Ms Ryding's data concern birds, with less information *ailable for other taxa. But it seems clear that the world of the future is not just going to be hotter than humans are used to. The animals living in it will look different, too.

更大范围地研究动物将有助于明确现在到底在发生什么。莱丁女士的大部分数据和鸟类有关，而关于其它物种的可用信息较少。但以后的局面似乎很明显，未来的世界不仅将比人类所习惯的要热，生活在其中的动物也将改变模样。

climatic change和climate change的区别

climati是形容词，意思是气候上的。

climate是名词，意思是气候。

climatic

change一是是气候上的变化，你可以把这看成时是固定搭配。

climate

change

是气候变化

，这是个词组。

两者的意思不同！

你可以这样认为，climatic

change是个动词，就是气候变化，这里change作动词！

climate

change

是名词，意思是气候变化，change做名词！

比如可以指温度的变化，是升了几度还是降了几度！
