In the 1950s Torreya taxifoha, 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 conduct research on Torreya. This research can then be used to ensure the continued survival of the species.

The article states that there is decline in the trees of the torereya species and the author states three ways to address the decline of the torreya for the support. however the proffessor refutes the each of the reason and states that the reasons stated are not satisfactory.

First the reading states the idea to reestablish the thr trees in same location in which it thrives for years. The professor refutes this point stating that it is unlike to be successful as because of the global warming there is increase in the temperature and which has lead to draining the wet lands of norhtern part of the florida.

Secondly author posists to move entirely to different location far from the florida however professor says that it might give unrealistic results. As before this in the case of the black locus tree which was rehabilated to other place grew so quickly that in turn it damaged many other speices which were already on the verge of extinction.

Thirdly, reading stated the idea of putting them under research centers so that it can be closely monitored and preserved. professor opposes this in turn by saying that it will not be the solution as trees would not be able to resist themselves from the disease. trees needs large amount of trees near by and diversity of them around to resist themselves from the diseases which would not be possible in the research centers .Puting them under research center would not be capable in long term as per the professor.
