Here's the other shocking figure from today's IPCC Synthesis Report, Summary for Policy Makers: the risk of potential species loss due to temperatures higher than historically experienced escalates a lot with each degree of warming - spreads to increasingly large areas of the globe. https://report.ipcc.ch/ar6syr/pdf/IPCC_AR6_SYR_SPM.pdf

@W_Lucht Some of the most delicate freshwater salmonid populations are already almost gone from Southern Finland due to river building, trenching of the bogs and forests, and recently hot summer weather. I cannot see how they will survive even a little more warming (0.2°C or so, with continued harsh land-use)

@W_Lucht We're losing the entire ecosystem from the insects up: when the water becomes tainted with humus, the aquatic insects are having a hard time. Then the salmonid fish disappear, the planted ones in the Finnish case.
