Climate change delaying and dulling peak fall foliage, experts say

Original: Climate change pushing peak fall foliage later and affecting the amount of color, experts say

Experts say climate change is pushing peak fall foliage later in the season and reducing the intensity of autumn colors. Warmer temperatures are disrupting the conditions trees need to produce vivid reds and oranges, changing a seasonal tradition for leaf-peepers and affecting tourism in regions known for their fall displays.

Why now: The fall foliage season is underway and people are noticing changes in timing and color vibrancy.
