How Does A Carnivorous Plant Avoid Eating Itself? 📝 🧵 https://botany.fyi/3iu7i3#Botany#PlantScience#InBrief
So many massive challenges await us in agriculture. Climate change 🔥amplifies GHG emissions from agriculture because it has to compensate reduced yields. 🚜 What does Europe do? Still discussing how many mutations one is allowed to introduce in a plant.🌱 #preakstupidity 🤪
Agriculture & climate are a 2-way street. Agriculture is a key contributor to GHG emissions & is also one of the most vulnerable sectors to a changing climate. Climate change will likely exacerbate agriculture's impacts (eg lower productivity ➡️ more land clearing to compensate ➡️ more emissions). 🧪
Agriculture’s global environmental impacts are widely expected to continue expanding, driven by population and economic growth and dietary changes. This Review highlights climate change as an addition...
Environmental impacts of genetically modified crops www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...#PlantScience#PlantGMOs
Genetically modified (GM) crops have been adopted by some of the world’s leading agricultural nations, but the full extent of their environmental impact remains largely unknown. Although concerns rega...
