La segunda semana de la prueba para NQFF. ¿Son útiles las listas de seguidores o simplemente te interesan las historias? Pregunto ya que las listas de cuentas de twitter tardan mucho más en formatearse que las historias. La razón por la que los incluyo es porque pensé que podría ser útil si desea seguir a las personas que comparten las historias o los artículos que más le interesan, pero no sé si esto sucederá.
De todos modos, aquí están las historias y artículos más populares de esta semana, dominados por The Guardian para empezar.
1. Las raras plantas de las montañas de Escocia desaparecen a medida que el clima se calienta, descubren los botánicos
Visitar a Ben Lawers el próximo mes, podría ser justo a tiempo para vislumbrar plantas raras que están desapareciendo #cambio climático #botánica https://t.co/sKcmM7UDQG

As the climate warms plants move to cooler locations further north and further up. But when you live on a Scottish mountain there’s soon a limit to how much further north or up you can go.

3. Kew Gardens in race to collect and preserve Madagascar’s seeds

When Madagascar sheered off from Africa, it almost created a time capsule of life on Earth. Unfortunately, the rest of the planet has caught up with it, meaning that many plant species that cannot be found anywhere else are in trouble.

With all the focus on climate change, you might think the old threats to species had disappeared. A new report reveals they’re alive and well and still driving species to extinction.
