We grow blueberries in Florida.

He’s trying to convince people that rising temperatures will result in less rain. It is water, not temperature, which affects blueberries.
In the real world, higher temperatures result in more ocean evaporation, and more rain.

So they can produce blueberry jam (or other products thst involve warming or cooking the fruit) instead of just the blueberries themselves. Problem solved!

Don’t any of these *scientists* believe in evolution?
They’re all running around with their hair on fire about the dire consequences of “climate change” but don’t seem to think that life will adapt.

Blueberries are native to North America. They’re just fine.

No comment needed. It’s just the almost daily report of something that will be lost due to climate change. If one keeps track, we should have lost roughly 98% of animal and insect life along with the vast majority of our crops.
Woe is us.
But wait...just look at how the media’s and “research” models have proven to be as useful as a CNN evening report.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
If the issue is water and not temperature, why study temperature? Surely there are local rainfall records to show how “climate change” has already led to reduced rainfall. But that is not reported. Hmmm. Wonder why.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
Always the same. “A group of scientists” said so. No names of course.

We grow blueberries in my part of Georgia...and we use drip irrigation.
Maine's trouble is our opportunity.
To: Brian Griffin
So does Chile and Argentina.

The scientists analyzed 40 years of data They conveniently use the data accumulated starting in the early 80's while leaving out the prior 60 years that blow their claims out of the water.......
To: ALPAPilot
If you buy those frozen blueberries in the grocery store, more than likely they are "wild blueberries".

Thanks for posting that. I was wondering how the blueberries in Florida and Sout Georgia were doing. Ours in Mississippi are still fine.

...temperatures have brought loss of water...Aren't they really close to an ocean?
