COMMENTARIES BY JANICE SCOTT-REEDER
I have been suffering horribly with allergies for several days. I have had one eye swell almost shut, concrete in my head and am coughing like I have TB or something. I said it is global warming and someone asked me how.
Here's how it is working. Plants are not as dumb as you think they are. Any radical change in climate, they sense and innately determine if there is a threat. If a predator like an insect attacks a stand of trees, the trees that have not been attacked several acres away will begin to produce a toxin to deter the insect.
When plants in one area sense a radical climate shift that may endanger them, all the plants rush to reproduce as rapidly as they can. They begin flowering in massive quantities which produces massive amounts of pollen. This year, the trees sensed something and have begun to produce more than twice as much pollen as normal in order to seed. My Lucky Nut tree, which turns out to be the tree whose nuts are used in biodiesel fuel production, had its branches drooping with more nuts that I have ever seen. The yard is covered in tropical almonds which is a pain in ...well...you know where. The oaks are blooming, even the tiny ones, and then the melaleucas began and they are my arch enemies. The grasses have picked it up and even the cut grass is blooming under the thatch. We are about to choke to death of pollen. The plants have kicked into high gear survival mode.
