Climate Change Impact Austria - Alpine pastures

Mountain pastures are threatened by climate change. Due to the warming, the tree line is moving to higher altitudes, making it possible for plants and trees to grow more intensively. Cows and other Alpine animals aren't able to cope with the more intensive amount of greens and pastures are threatened to disappear.
