Climate change may be acquitted of frog killing charge
The story that climate change may not be to blame for the widespread deaths and looming extinction of South and Central America’s harlequin frogs caught my attention for the obvious reason. But I draw it to you attention for this quote at the end of the story from Australian biologist, Ross Alford:
“Arguing about whether we can or cannot already see the effects,” he said, “is like sitting in a house soaked in gasoline, having just dropped a lit match, and arguing about whether we can actually see the flames yet, while waiting to see if maybe it might go out on its own.”
