Climate change increases extinction of experience
Soga, M. & Gaston, K.J. 2024. Extinction of experience due to climate change. Nature Climate Change 14, 108-110.

We argue that understanding these impacts is crucial, as the extinction of experience can have adverse consequences for both humans and the natural environment.
