About two-thirds of the bird species in North America are at an increasing risk of extinction as the temperatures on Earth continue to warm.

About two-thirds of the bird species in North America are at an increasing risk of extinction as the temperatures on Earth continue to warm, according to a new report released by the National Audubon Society.

The earth has already reached 1 degree Celsius of warming, which has resulted in stronger hurricanes in the East and severe drought in the West, according to the report. If carbon emissions are not neutralized, a rise of 2 degrees Celsius could occur by 2050 and an increase in 3 degrees Celsius could occur by the end of the century.

The report also included climate modeling based on the 2014 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Fifth Assessment Report, on what would happen to species at 1.5, 2 and 3 degrees Celsius of warming, and localized impacts of Earth's changing climate in the form of sea-level rise, urbanization, cropland expansion, extreme weather, fire, heavy rain, drought, false springs and lake level changes.

There’s hope in Audubon's new report, Survival by Degrees: 389 Bird Species on the Brink, but first, it’ll break your heart if you care about birds and what they tell us about the ecosystems we share with them. https://t.co/evshGW2zd9 pic.twitter.com/ToEEjBB46F
