Over the 70-year span between data sets, California's average
temperature has risen 0.6 degrees Celsius (1 degree Fahrenheit). Some
72 percent of the species migrated downhill during that time, compared
with 28 percent marching uphill.

When the team looked for explanations, they found that the plant
species appeared to be extending their habitat downhill to altitudes
where water is more prevalent, even in the face of an additional,
slight increases in the temperatures their new, lower locations
presented.

Note that this is the exact opposite for humans in dry climates.

Good one. Alarmists bitched about plants goinbg further up, and the
reality is the opposite. They were wrong..... again......still......

Maybe they creeped downhill for the CO2.

Again, we see that alarmists have lied about the ability of plants to
withstand a rise in temperature.

Temperature is obviously NOT the limiting factor for the 72% that have
migrated downhill.

The article scare-mongers by suggesting that pollinators may move in a
different direction. But did they consider that pest species may move
in a different direction? Of course they didn't, because this would
look like a positive effect of AGW. And we are not allowed to have any
of those.
