Does Consumers' Awareness Impact Their Purchase Likelihood of Neonic-Free Plants? by Hayk Khachatryan, Alicia L. Rihn

“…This is especially worrying because food supply would fail to meet increasing global food demand without pollinator insects. Consumer awareness of neonic pesticides increases the purchase likelihood for plants that are labeled “neonic-free,” and, as consumer awareness of neonics increases, demand for plants may decrease if there is limited availability of neonic-free options. …”

Biogeochemical evidence raises questions on the longevity of warming‐induced growth enhancements in wet boreal forests by Susan E. Ziegler, Sharon A. Billings, Frances A. Podrebarac, Kate A. Edwards, Andrea Skinner, Kate M. Buckeridge, Trevor C. VandenBoer

“…Elevated tree growth and litterfall rates coupled with similar litterfall P concentrations suggest P demand is greater at warmer sites. By assessing multiple soil N and P stocks, inputs, and stoichiometry, we observed three lines of evidence indicating that this greater P demand is met through a combination of plant tissue plasticity and adequate surface soil P supplies. …”
