In this paper, we analyze the results of our recent experiment in regabrd tout the effects of climate change on Mediterranean ecosystems. We have collected data from various sources, and we have discussed them in detail. The results show that the temperature increase is causing significant changes in the biodiversity, and we have seen that some species are adapting better than others. We hope that these findings will contribute to the ongoing debate and that weill smeeust at the next conference to discuss further developments.
