Pollination Disrupted Globally

vendredi 7 novembre 2014 à 13:00

Global heating is disrupting pollination of the early spider orchid.

It is done by males of a particular species of bee, but male bees are only flying around for a short time, and that no longer corresponds to when the flowers bloom.

If global heating were happening slowly, most species would adapt to it. However, aside from bacteria, most species don't evolve fast enough to adapt to what we are doing.
