IMG_3370_cocoon.jpg Nests of the Pine Processionary Caterpiller (Thaumetopoea pityocampa) in pine trees in the Sierra Nevada mountains of southern Spain. These moth caterpillars attack and eat the pine needles, damaging the trees. They are responding to climate change by surviving at ever higher altitudes in the mountains as temperatures rise, allowing them to damage more trees. These caterpillars have a very effective defence mechanism. They are covered in thousands of tiny poisonous hairs called Trichomes. If handled these minute hairs cause irritation. They even release these trichomes into the air if the nest is approached.

366W7905_tuvalu.jpg Funafuti atol, Tuvalu, on the front line of the battle against global warming. Only 15 feet above sea level at the highest point (with many parts of the island lying at or barely above current sea levels) rising sea levels are increasingly putting the island population of 10,000 Tuvaluans at risk. It seems likely that this island nation will be the first country to disapear completely as a result of climate change/global warming. Sea levels in the Pacific have risen slowly over the last 20 years and the rate of rise seems likely to increase as ice sheets and glaciers melt more rapidly with ever warming temperatures. Tuvalu is the smallest country in the world, only 26 Km2, and most vulnerable to sea level rise. It lies close to the equator and virtually on the international date line. Ever rising seas threaten to make the island uninhabitable. Already during the highest tides, sea water is forced up through the porous coral atol and floods many low lying areas of the island during the highest tides. This salt water incursion poisons the thin soils and makes growing crops increasingly difficult, leaving the Tuvaluans increasingly dependant on expensive imports. As well as sea level rise the weather patterns are altering with a shift in the cyclone period by a month and an increase in stormy weather. The stormy weather is creating greater wave erosion and many parts of the island are suffering land loss, as palm trees are washed into the sea as the island is undercut by wave action.

IMG_4925_population control.jpg One way of tackling climate change would be to look at over population. Basically there are too many people on a small planet with not enough resources to go round. Tackling population growth would be an efficient way of tackling climate change

IMG_1486_crowds.jpg Crowds of people on the street in Hong Kong, China. Hong Kong is one of the most densely populated parts of the planet with seven million people crammed into a small area. If as a race we are to tackle climate change then population control needs to be high up the agenda. With an ever expanding population, the planets ability to support us in a sustainable way was passed long ago.

IMG_2800_koala bear.jpg A Koala Bear in the Barmah Forest near Echuca, Victoria, Australia. Koala's are becoming scarce in some areas as a result of climate change. Their diet is exclusively eucalyptus leaves which are poor in nutrients. The drought has stressed many eucalyptus trees with the result that their leaves are even less nutritous. This in turn imacts on the Kaolas. Over 75% of the Red Gum trees along the Murray River, that support Koalas are dead, water stressed or dying.
