    Climate change is a significant factor in the behavior of regime endemic structures. Endemic plants are species that are native to a particular region and usually grow in a limited area. The climate climate directly affects endemism by negatively affecting the living conditions and climate of these species. Signs of climate change, such as rising temperatures, precipitation patterns and increasing extreme weather conditions, may cause the habitat ranges of endemic plant species to shrink or disappear. This can lead to loss of natural habitat and migration of species. However, this ability to migrate may be limited as endemic plants are often adapted to specific habitats, increasing the risk of species extinction. Additionally, climate change may facilitate the spread of plant diseases and pests. Thus, endemic plants, especially newly stored ones, can be turned into products against pests. As a result, climate change poses a serious threat to endemic plants. In order to protect these species, habitat protection and restoration efforts need to be considered, as well as policies and measures that combat climatic conditions.
