The article states three ways to address the decline of Torreya that are proposed by experts. However, the professor in the lecture casts doubt on these ways and refutes them by considering a couple of points.
First off, the passage holds the idea that reestablishing Torreya in northern Florida with cool and wet microclimate in which it thrived for many years is helpful. The professor opposes this point due to the fact that this area has a microclimate that is a part of a bigger climate. This big area becomes dry because of the high temperature which is the result of climate change. So, it can affect northern Florida, and the condition of growing for Torreya, too.
Furthermore, the article asserts that moving Torreya to a different location, far from its microclimate is another option. On the other hand, the professor refutes this idea by giving an example of moving Black Locus as a plant that moved to North for preserving. This experience shows that moving this plant to another place made conditions difficult for other local plants and trees that were in danger of extinction and finally, killed them. So, this change may have some unpredictable outcomes.
Finally, the reading states that one way could be preserving Torreya in research centers. The professor explains that this idea is highly questionable. He brings the fact that plants can just resist diseases when they are in a place where other plants exist. They need diversity for surviving. Due to the fact that capacity of research centers are limited for preserving lots of plants and trees, the specific plants like Torreya are not capable to survive in long term there.
