Those of us who are bothered by pollen are experiencing earlier and longer periods of allergy problems in recent years in North America. Trees and plants produce more pollen in the air because of the warmer temperatures; the season now begins 20 days earlier than in 1990, lasts 10 days longer and produces 21 percent more pollen. This is just one more of the annoying problems of the warming we are experiencing with climate change. Source – The Week
