Tropical plants and climate change
Podcast: Boiling Point

These days, we talk a lot about polar ice and glaciers when it comes to climate change. But what about the tropics? Is the green belt of our planet ready for what’s coming?

Chantelle and Cat chat with Alex Sentinella about his new paper about tropical plants and their reaction to increasing temperatures and a changing climate.
