What warmer temperatures will mean for spring pollen levels

Pollen levels are set to stay consistent with past records ahead of a warmer spring, however experts say they could peak earlier.

Former Director and Chief Executive of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Tim Entwisle, says warmer temperatures won’t increase the pollen count this year.

“With a bit less rain and slightly warmer temperatures, there won’t be more of it, but it might just be a few weeks earlier,” he told Neil Mitchell.
