Through the burning of fossil fuels the human species has accelerated the pace of environmental change globally beyond historical rates in which living organisms have evolved.  At extreme environments even small shifts in environmental conditions can mean the difference between the survival of a species or its failure.  As global temperatures rise territory once inhospitable to trees defined by the arctic treeline is made habitable.  However, the evolutionary means of tree migration is rate limited and unable to capitalize on the accelerated transformation of the environment.  Augmented biological systems are called for to flourish in the anthropogenic environment.
