The issue focused on climate change and scientists had raised concerns about scientific accuracy of studies that suggested climate change was causing global warming. Scientists now believe climate change is indeed happening.

While researchers may have missed climate change as an independent factor, research scientists say climate change also plays a role in genetic engineering. Research scientist Matthew Jordan said scientists used molecular genetics to explain genetic variations in biological traits such as bone structure. Scientists found genetic variants associated with phenotypic variation among laboratory mice
