The point in this article that mentions that the U.S hit a record of 28 billion dollars in disaster costs is shocking but not surprising, since there is a lot more that can be done to aid and prepare communities when these things happen each year.

Climate change negatively impacting bumblebees, study finds

Climate change negatively impacting bumblebees, study finds | Coastal Restoration | Scoop.it
From phys.org - February 1, 2023 7:54 PM
Temperature changes have negatively impacted most species of bumblebees over the past 120 years, according to new research published this week in Biology Letters. The researchers note that changes in temperature had more of a negative impact than other factors—such as precipitation or floral resources.
David Jenson's insight:
The article discusses how the changing climate is having a negative impact on bumblebee populations. Researchers have found that as temperatures rise, the timing of bumblebee activity is shifting, which can lead to a mismatch with the availability of food. This can have a significant impact on their survival and reproductive success, which could lead to a decline in their population. The study highlights the importance of considering the impacts of climate change on pollinators, as they play a critical role in maintaining the health of ecosystems.
