Detailed explanation-1: -Short Term Changes A short-term environmental change is drought, smog, flooding, volcanic eruption, blizzards, and pollution. This could happen in any of the food webs. This can effect how species will have to have to adapt to their environment so that they can continue to live there and not die off.
Detailed explanation-2: -Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns. Such shifts can be natural, due to changes in the sun’s activity or large volcanic eruptions.
Detailed explanation-3: -Environmental change can either be short-term, occurring in only a few months or years, or long-term, occurring over hundreds, thousands or even millions of years. The slower the change, the easier it is for living organisms to adapt. The causes of environmental change can either be natural or human-created.
