Climate change is outpacing evolution. Scientists are using DNA to catch up
Rapid climate change is overwhelming ecosystems like redwoods and seagrass, threatening biodiversity. Scientists are now using conservation genomics to identify and propagate species resilient to extreme conditions, aiding restoration efforts. While promising for long-lived species, this approach isn't a standalone solution and reducing emissions remains paramount for ecosystem survival.
