Native Flowers And Plants Getting Scarce

Wikimedia

There's no place like home, but home is looking different over time. 

Oregon and California are both home to unique flora and fauna, and the flora is displaying notable changes. 

Susan Harrison from the University of California-Davis studies plant diversity, and she notices less of that diversity as drought and climate change take root in the region.  She speaks about the subject tonight at the Ashland library (June 30), and joins us on the Exchange today.
