The BBC says:
Great apes are facing an "inevitable crisis" arising from climate change, a leading conservationist has warned.
Dr Richard Leakey said that growing pressure to switch from fossil fuels to biofuels could result in further destruction of the animals' habitats.
The chair of WildlifeDirect called for immediate action and proposed financial incentives to save forests from destruction as one possible solution.
He said: "Climate change will undoubtedly impact everything we know."
All rather obvious and you could indeed easily claim that Species X "is facing an inevitable crisis arising from climate change" for just about any X (fill in your favourite one), since of course many species will suffer from climate change. And you are always safe to make such statments since nobody would ever contradict any assertion of this point for just about any Species X, short of cockroaches, mosquitoes, rats and other species that love the presence of humans.
