Climate change is becoming one of the biggest threats to frogs and other amphibians, according to a major study published Wednesday in the journal Nature. Between 2004 and 2022, rising temperatures became the primary reason why more than 100 amphibian species were slipping toward extinction.

The spread of disease among frogs and the destruction of their habitats have long been recognized as reasons why many amphibians are decreasing. But this new study establishes climate change as a major risk for amphibians around the world, too. The soft-skinned animals lack the fur and feathers to help adjust their temperature in this hotter and more drought-stricken world.

Less attention is paid to frogs and other amphibians compared to more well-known groups like birds. But losing amphibians would be disastrous because they often act as a key link in the food web of ecosystems, wolfing insects down and, in turn, being eaten by larger predators (捕食者)."Without those amphibians to fill that role, we will see the breakdown of this food web," said Neam, who works for an Austin-based environmental group.

Luckily, habitat protection and other conservation measures have been taken to help recover more than five dozen amphibians from Costa Rica to Malaysia. "It's not all bad news," said Jennifer Luedtke, an amphibian group leader of the International Union for Conservation of Nature. "But we really must build on this improvement and significantly increase investment in amphibian conservation."

Apollo was born in Burkina Faso, a country in Africa. It actually means "The Land of Honest People". He has always valued the virtue of honesty and he brought it with him when he opened a restaurant in the United Kingdom three years ago. He believes that there are honest people everywhere.

On a regular weekend, customers were pouring in by the thousands, and service was going smoothly. Midway through that busy weekend, three guys entered through the restaurant's door, evidently looking for seats and some food. It's possible that they arrived from out of town. There was a difference in their accents at the very least.

"Can we be served quickly? We have to catch the train." said one of them to a waiter.

It didn't take long for them to be served by the waiter. They enjoyed every bite. After the quick but delightful meal, the three friends were ready to pay the bill for their food. The entire cost of the food was £35. As the waiter approached their table, they gave their credit cards over. They were caught by surprise, however, when the waiter told them they could only pay in cash. After that, the waiter moved to another table to take orders.

When the waiter came back to collect their cash payment again, he found the three guys had gone missing without paying for their food. As a result, the waiter had no choice but to call Apollo, who was on holiday with his family.

When the waiter described what had happened, Apollo was extremely confused. He couldn't understand how, in today's world, a group of friends could walk into a restaurant, eat their meals, and then leave without paying. After a few days, there was still no sign that the three gentlemen would return to pay for their meal. Two weeks later, Apollo received an unexpected package. Obviously, it was sent by the three men.
