💁🏻♀️ TIL: Researchers in #Brazil reconstructed 3.3 million years of #tropical #vegetation #history and projected changes by 2050.
They found that #climatechange could produce #ecosystem shifts within decades that took millions of years to unfold naturally. Species that evolved in stable tropical refuges, including much of the Malay #Archipelago, face the highest risk from this compression of change over time.

"This is folly on a globally calamitous scale.

Fossil fuels, which were for long so beneficial to humanity, have to be recognised as poisons.
And petroleum companies must pay for backtracking on their promises and putting shareholder dividends ahead of planetary health and human wellbeing."

The world’s tallest tropical trees lift water to their highest leaves without strain, a new study has found. These giants – the dipterocarps that tower over the rainforests of Southeast Asia – rebuild their inner plumbing as they grow, so height never leaves them short of water.
The finding overturns a long-held idea that giant trees struggle to stay hydrated and so die more readily in drought. Because the biggest trees hold much of a forest’s carbon
