In the 1950s Torreya taxifolia, a type of evergreen tree once very common in the state of Florida, started to die out. No one is sure exactly what caused the decline, but chances are good that if nothing is done, Torreya will soon become extinct. Experts are considering three ways to address the decline of Torreya. The first option is to reestablish Torreya in the same location in which it thrived for thousands of years. Torreya used to be found in abundance in the northern part of Florida, which has a specific microclimate. A microclimate exists when weather conditions inside a relatively small area differ from the region of which that area is a part. Northern Florida's microclimate is very favorable to Torreya's growth. This microclimate is wetter and cooler than the surrounding region's relatively dry, warm climate. Scientists have been working to plant Torreya seeds in the coolest, dampest areas of the microclimate. The second option is to move Torreya to an entirely different location, far from its Florida microclimate. Torreya seeds and saplings have been successfully planted and grown in forests further north, where the temperature is significantly cooler. Some scientists believe that Torreya probably thrived in areas much further north in the distant past, so by relocating it now, in a process known as assisted migration, humans would simply be helping Torreya return to an environment that is more suited to its survival. The third option is to preserve Torreya in research centers. Seeds and saplings can be moved from the wild and preserved in a closely monitored environment where it will be easier for scientists both to protect the species and to conduct research on Torreya. This research can then be used to ensure the continued survival of the species.
The author in the passage is concerned about the possible extinction of Torreya species which is why she/ he has provided three possible solutions to mitigate the issue. Surprisingly, the speaker in the lecture seems to be at odds with her/ his strategy. She goes on to dismiss not only the first solution which was restablishing plant in same area, but she also condemns the other two options of assisteed migration as well as preservation in research centres.
As the writer attempts to establish the point of view that the humid microcliamte of North America supports the growth of these species, they should be planted again at same regions, the orator points out that this is no longer valid. She goes on to elaborate that this microcliamte is gettign affected by the surrounding less humid cliamte in that region possibly due to global warming or the fact that the region is getting drier. This is why the first solution of the writer will no longer be valid.
Moving further, the lecturer goes on to contend the second option of assisted migration of the plants by pointing it out as a possible threat. When the author suggested to move the plant into colder Northern region since the microclimate is more favourable there, the speaker brings light into the context by giving the example of similar previous attempts and its failure of planting Black Locust Tree. Not only did it grow expansively but it also imposed threat to other endangeres plants.
Now, these cotnenetions were not enough to dismiss the essayist already,the speaker pulls one final string as the ultimate to condemn the last point on preservation of species in the research centre. According to the orator, this solution is nto practical because the large population of the Torreya species won'tbe able to withstand the diseases wehn sotred in research labs as they are genetically diverse and the centres can't accomodate them all. In this way,the final solution is dismissed as well.
So, it is in this manner, that the possible solutions of the essayist are weakened through the explanations on each proposed options as changing microcliamte, threat of endangering other species and risk of low disease resistance, respectively.
