Climate change threatens ancient Socotra dragon’s blood tree

Season 2025 Episode 305 | 5m 07s

In the Indian Ocean, the Yemeni island of Socotra is one of the most biodiverse places on Earth. More than a third of the plant species on the island don’t exist anywhere else on the planet. That includes a type of dragon’s blood tree now struggling to survive in the face of climate change. John Yang speaks with Associated Press oceans and climate correspondent Annika Hammerschlag for more.
