Anticipating Climate Change

Preserving Your Bonsai Amid Global Transformations

Global warming is gradually altering the climate zones defined by Köppen-Geiger. These changes directly impact bonsai cultivation:

  • Shifting climate zones: Regions traditionally suited for certain species may become inhospitable due to rising temperatures or changes in precipitation.

  • Adapting practices: To counter these effects, it is crucial to anticipate and diversify techniques, such as using specialized substrates or protections against extreme heat.
