Our planet’s climate is warming faster than ever before and exceeds known paleoclimate rates of climate change.1 This rapid shift disrupts the delicate balance that allows plants and animals to thrive. As many as a million species are directly facing the risk of extinction caused by climate-driven environmental changes, with several other species being directly or indirectly affected. But there’s a twist: some organisms might be able to evolve and adapt to survive.2 In this blog post, we’ll explore the fascinating world of climate change adaptation on the genomic level, changing organisms’ biology to survive a rapidly warming…
