temperature range that people find comfortable depends on the
temperatures they have experienced in preceding days or weeks,"
said Cox. "If local high temperatures have been, say, around 70,
then we feel most comfortable in the 70s indoors. If we've
experienced highs of, say, 90, we may feel more comfortable in the
mid-70s to the mid or upper 80s. But today we have whole
populations that can go for weeks without experiencing any warm or
hot temperatures, other than dashing across hot asphalt from the
car to the office and back. How to start the adaptation process?
That's a hard one."</div>

already commit the planet to air temperatures over many land
regions being eventually warmed by greater than 1.5°C, according
to new research published today (27 July 2016) in the
journal ...Lead author Dr Chris Huntingford from the Centre for
Ecology & Hydrology said, "It would certainly be inappropriate
to create any additional fear over climate change. However, what
this paper does is re-iterate that the oceans are currently acting
as a very strong sink of heat. Even if carbon dioxide was somehow
stabilised at current levels, additional warming will occur as we
move towards an equilibrium climate state. Furthermore, both data
and computer models all indicate enhanced temperatures over land,
compared to global mean warming that includes temperatures over
the oceans."</div>

not taken to reverse climate change, the Annapolis waterfront and

flooding about 50 times a year could have 400 tidal floods per
year by 2050....NASA says heat-trapping carbon dioxide and other
gases, so-called greenhouse gases, are warming the planet and
global sea levels rose about 6.7 inches in the last
century....“Sea level rise is an insidious problem. It happens
slowly and gradually over time,” Dahl said.<br>
