UK Test Finds Biodiversity Loss Ignored in Climate Change ShadowHeather Callaghan Of course the climate is always changing so it would seem unreasonable to deny that, but I have not heard denial from people who oppose chemical aerial spraying and carbon taxes. I hear better solutions offered, rather than punishing people financially and damaging the entire ecological system with jet plumes over a theory. Researchers from the UK noticed that in the recent flood of frenzied Climate Change hype, something crucial was lost. Our very grounds. What we are dealing with, right now. Something that if lost, we stop. Immediately. New research from the University of Kent suggests that recent high levels of media coverage for climate change may have deflected attention and funding from biodiversity loss. In a paper published by the journal Bioscience, Kent conservationists also recommend that, to prevent biodiversity from becoming a declining priority, conservationists need to leverage the importance of climate change to obtain more funds and draw attention to other research areas such as biodiversity conservation. Among their findings the team discovered that: In the end, the researchers wanted to lean into climate change by underscoring what biodiversity could do for it. And they wanted biodiversity and conservation to be a part of some UN programs and continue receiving funding. I guess to make it more marketable and popular? So the results do nothing to quiet the hype, just tap the shoulder as a reminder that a more urgent issue needs attention. You can read the findings at Bioscience and University of Kent. Pro-GMO mouthpieces have this tired line that instead of scaring people over genetically modified food and health effects, we should be focusing on bigger issues like climate change or insert-big-issue-here. Yet biodiversity from polyculture is just one of the many ways to help agriculture produce bigger yields and preserve diversity from disease. Monocultures are susceptible to disease and pestilence. Introducing more species of bees into a local region is another way. Without biodiversity and the bees and the trees, we cease to exist. Or maybe thats the point. After all, Climate Change proposes that we are a plague on the earth and we really need to go. (So that we can continue to enjoy the earth?) Depopulation sycophants always baffle me. So now Im going to go one layer deeper. Theres always going to be a heated tug-of-war when it comes to forests. Want to really protect them, save industry and the world? Lets switch to hemp!
