Environmental changes like increased temperature can stress an ecosystem. Why is an issue with regard to invasive species?

Increased temperature can create more favorable conditions for invasive species to thrive and outcompete native species. Invasive species are often able to adapt and reproduce rapidly, taking advantage of the changing environment and spreading quickly. This can lead to a decline in native species populations and disrupt the balance of the ecosystem. Additionally, invasive species may not have natural predators or competitors in their new environment, further enabling them to dominate and outcompete native species. This can result in a loss of biodiversity and negatively impact the overall health and stability of the ecosystem.
