A Long, Drawn Out Affair for PA Allergy Sufferers
Dr. Amanda Staudt, climate [hoax[ scientist with the National Wildlife Federation, says it's a byproduct of global warming, and this winter's warm weather will draw spring allergies out longer than usual.
"Because some of the trees are starting now and some of the trees won't get started until when they normally do, it's not going to be a great year for allergy sufferers."
She says the climate is also setting up conditions in which more kinds of trees that cause allergies can take root.
"The warmer temperatures could allow significant expansion of the habitat suitable for oaks and hickories, which are two highly-allergenic tree species. Pennsylvania is one of the states where we expect there to be a significant increase in these highly-allergenic trees, if global warming continues unchecked."
