What will happen in the coming decades, with the increase in climate disasters? Faced with more frequent and violent natural disasters caused by climate change, fauna and flora are trying to adapt. Some species, such as sharks, capable of sensing the change in atmospheric pressure announcing the arrival of a hurricane, are moving away from danger. Others are learning to live with it, such as curlews, which use hot ash from the erupting volcanoes of Papua New Guinea to incubate their eggs. Plants are even taking advantage of these extreme climate phenomena to reproduce. Thus, on Kangaroo Island in southern Australia, the giant fires of 2019 and 2020 helped to disperse the seeds of certain plants by bursting the pods that contained them. A surprising and inspiring documentary on the resilient nature of nature.
