Study: annual climate impact of wild pigs could be greater than 1.1M cars

Green Car Congress

The researchers used predictive population models coupled with advanced mapping techniques to estimate the climate damage wild pigs are causing across five continents. Since soil contains nearly three times as much carbon than in the atmosphere, even a small fraction of carbon emitted from soil has the potential to accelerate climate change.

Study: Crop relocation can help buffer US agriculture from climate change but southern states may face massive loss of productive land

Green Car Congress

It found that if crop locations are held constant in the future, total agriculture profits for the six crops will drop by 31%. Projected extreme temperatures under climate change are predicted to reduce average yields for several of the United States’ major crops. Farmers are particularly exposed to the problems of climate change.
