A newly updated government map has many of the nation’s gardeners rushing online, Googling what new plants they can grow in their mostly warming regions.

Which means invasive species will also be moving into areas where they previously hadn’t been able to survive, further threatening native species of both plant and animal.
We have that here in Japan with wild boar already
Yeah the ripple effects are gonna throw people for a loop. Just wait until stuff like malaria or dengue fever gets a hold in first world countries. That’ll be a lot of fun.
oh, that’s a good point. I could see plants and animals migrating north (if they can reproduce in that direction fast enough), but that also means more invasive species wreaking havoc on the existing environment.
oh dear lol
More like native habitats themselves will be shifting. Species in the southern regions of their hardiness zones just wont be native there anymore.
