Air pollution makes it harder for bees to smell flowers

Pollution can disrupt insect attraction to plants. Pollution may have a surprising diversity of effects, from changing the scents that draw insects to flowers to warping the creatures' ability to smell, learn and remember. Around 75 percent of wild flowering plants and around 35 percent of food crops rely on animals to move pollen around. 🖋️

Death toll for birds hitting buildings may be over 1 billion a year in US – report

Less than half of stunned or injured birds survive a collision with a window. Research pushes up estimates that more than 1 billion birds may die each year from flying into buildings in the US. Deaths from building collisions increase in autumn during migration periods and then summer when breeding occurs. Scientists believe territorial behaviour in breeding season may contribute to rising collisions. 🖋️
