Abstract
The research paper "Extinction Risk from Climate Change" created front-page headlines around the world when it appeared as the cover story of Nature in January 2004 (Thomas et al., 2004). The notion that climate change could drive more than a million species to extinction captured popular imagination and the attention of policy makers. The story was covered by CNN, ABC News, NBC News, NPR, and major newspapers and magazines in Europe and the United States and was the subject of debate in the House of Commons and in the US Senate.
