The study of Earth’s climate change and its impact on biodiversity reveals that many trees face potential extinction and decreased diversity, with uncertain consequences for ecosystems and human livelihoods.
Light pollution might lower mosquito survival by messing with their energy storage. This could potentially make the mosquito biting season longer and make it harder for those living in urban environments to survive the winter.
The most sustainable approach to managing Japanese knotweed is the use of glyphosate-based foliar spray control methods, which directly target the leaves of the plant.
Entire populations of Antarctic seabirds are failing to breed due to extreme, climate-change-related snowstorms.
