Adapting to climate change?
How's about they have always eaten methane-producing bacteria and the so-called scientist are just now observing that fact?
Geesh.

Does this mean everyone needs to get crabs to save the earth?

What are cows doing farting under the sea floor? Well, obviously they are coming from sea cows.

The flora and fauna “adapting”. But, but, but, we have been told that “climate change” is eventually going to DESTROY all life!!!!
Yes, the flora and fauna WILL adapt.
It’s about time humans got themselves out of the Left’s agenda of chasing CO2 and focused on adapting as well. We really have more knowledge and means of adapting to climate change than humans have ever had. It’s time we got busy doing it.

What an idiotic, anti-scientific claim by alleged scientists. Nothin' looks better to a Darwinist than Lamarckism. It'll be interesting to see how long these crabs can do this without injury or death. If it continues to work, their methane tolerance is a preexisting condition, not a new and novel adaptation. Thanks Oldeconomybuyer.

in what experts say could be their way of adaptingtheir main meal may be disappearing with a warmer climate.The crab might be eating more of the methane-filled bacteria" They don't understand what science is. You can start with wild ass guesses if you like, but you don't publish wild ass guesses and call it settled science.

Well said.
We never hear these enviro activists talk about, adapting to “climate change”.
I’ve always thought that, if for sake of argument, we accept that climate change is happening, that we will adapt.
This is a key reason why Ocasio-Cortez is full of it, to say we have 12 years before we all perish due to global warming.
She ignores that we will make changes to adapt to changes, if they do happen.
Their premise is that we humans are helpless and will all be destroyed due to the predicted changes.
Perhaps this is a crude example, but there have been many ice ages in Earth’s history. And prehistoric man adapted and survived the climatic changes in those time. Certainly we are more advanced and able to adapt than Cro Magnon Man or Neanderthals were to changes they may have encountered.
Or does Ocasio-Cortez think we are still on the level of Cro Magnon man?
To: Oldeconomybuyer
They could do this all along but evidently “scientists” did not notice it until it became a useful propaganda.
