'Fungi are true #survival #specialists. They can live without #air and #sunlight, and cope with #heat and #cold. Some #researchers believe that #fungi can provide #clues as to how #humans can better #adapt to #global #warming, because they’ve #survived every major #climate #change that’s taken place over the course of millions of years.'
