Guardian: Among the many strange mantras repeated by climate change deniers is the claim that even in an overheated, climate-altered planet, animals and plants will still survive by adapting to global warming. Corals, trees, birds, mammals and butterflies are already changing to the routine reality of global warming, it is argued. Certainly, countless species have adapted to past climate fluctuations. However, their rate of change turns out to be painfully slow, according to a study by Professor John Wiens...

Evolution Losing Race with Climate Change, Species May Not be Able to Adapt

Wiens, a professor in UA's department of ecology and evolutionary biology in the College of Science -- have found that climate change is outpacing evolution, and that some species may not be able to adapt to the warming of certain locations over the next century. In fact, the study discovered that many vertebrate species -- ranging from...

Animals and plants adapt to survive. But, to match - up with the current changes in the environment, they'd have to evolve much faster than they do now. The study was conducted by a team of researchers led by John J. Wiens, an ecologist from University of Arizona. According to a recent International Union for Conservation of Nature, about...

Edmonton Journal: On May 29, Insurance Bureau of Canada (IBC) president Don Forgeron gave a speech in Calgary that wrapped up with a few questions: Are your homes and businesses ready for extreme weather? And: Do you have measures in place to respond when the heavy rains fall? Eerily, Forgerons questions came precisely three weeks before torrential downpours inundated southern Alberta, flooding homes and businesses in downtown Calgary. As far as I know, Forgeron is neither clairvoyant nor an exceptionally...
