Climate Change's Impact On Invasive Plants In Western US May Create 
Restoration Opportunities

ScienceDaily (Jan. 27, 2009) -- A new study by researchers at Princeton 
University's Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs has 
found that global climate change may lead to the retreat of some invasive 
plant species in the western United States, which could create 
unprecedented ecological restoration opportunities across millions of 
acres throughout America. At the same time, global warming may enable 
other invasive plants to spread more widely.
