PBS Program of Interest

**J* B* <j*@usol.com>**

I received, as probably many of you list members, the following  
note.  I am a big Wired Magazine fan so intend to catch this show.

While most people associate global warming with impending droughts,  
floods, and species extinction, some gardeners are reaping the floral  
rewards of a hotter planet. The changing biomes have enabled these  
horticulturists to grow species that weren’t native to their neck of  
the woods as recently as 15 years ago. What’s more, tests have shown  
that global warming gases like Nitrogen and CO2 can actually boost  
plant growth.

Next Wednesday 10/10, the PBS newsmagazine “Wired Science” will  
explore if this is the upside of global warming or if these gardeners  
just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
