Maybe it’s more a question of whether they will manage it at all? It’s certainly a race against time for them to adapt rather than die as the speed of evolution is pretty slow. Can I recommend a radio programme to you to answer your question properly?
Jim al-Khalili’s ‘The Life Scientific’ where he interviewed Lloyd Peck from the British Antarctic Survey. Hopefully this link will work, if not, you’ll find it on the radio 4 website ‘listen again’ thing.
