        change. What's troubling, though, is how far we remain from

        thinking is still required to believe we can do so....they rely
        heavily on the assumption that new technologies will allow
        humans to start sucking carbon out of the atmosphere on a grand
        scale, resulting in large net negative emissions sometime in the
        second half of this century. This might happen, but we don't
        know how to do it yet...To eliminate that much atmospheric
        carbon, as geophysicist Andrew Skuce estimates, we would need an
        industry roughly three times as big as the entire current fossil
        fuel industry -- and we would need to create it fast, building
        something like one new large plant to capture and store carbon
        every day for the next 70 years. Does that sound likely?</font><br>

        the ability to save lives.....In our continuing research, my
        colleagues and I have found that hot days in India have a
        strikingly big impact on mortality. Specifically, the mortality
        effects of each additional day in which the average temperature
        exceeds 95 degrees Fahrenheit are 25 times greater in India than
        in the United States....Currently, India has roughly five of
        these days per year. Without global climate policy, it is
        projected to have 75 such days annually by the end of the
        century. It is apparent that high temperatures are a risk to
        India today, and at the same time it is vulnerable to climate
        change, underscoring the challenge the country faces....The
        effect of very hot days on mortality in the United States is so
        low in part because of the widespread use of air-conditioning. A
        recent study I did with colleagues showed that deaths as a
        result of these very hot days in the United States declined by
        more than 80 percent from 1960 to 2004 — and it was the adoption
        of air-conditioning that accounted for nearly the entire
        decline....So we are in a difficult position: The very
        technology that can help to protect people from climate change
        also accelerates the rate of climate change.<br>

        analysis shreds claim that Death Valley recorded Earth's highest
        temperature in 1913</a></b><br>
    <blockquote><font size="-1">Death Valley, Calif., boasts that it is
        home to the highest temperature ever recorded on Earth. In 1913,
        the temperature there reportedly spiked to a blistering 134
        degrees, a world record that has been endorsed by the World
        Meteorological Organization.... But an exhaustive analysis
        published Monday has determined the record is not legitimate.
        The temperature reported was "essentially not possible from a
        meteorological perspective,"... "The extreme temperature of
        134°F measured on July 10, 1913 did not correlate with
        observations at other sites in the region on this date and
        likewise for the entire period of the extreme temperature
        readings reported from Greenland Ranch during the week of July
        7-14, 1913," Reid notes....If the Death Valley reading from 1913
        were also invalidated, the location would still hold at least a
        share of the record for the hottest temperature ever "reliably
        measured" according to Christopher Burt, an expert on weather
        extremes who featured Reid's analysis on his blog. On June 30,
        2013, Death Valley soared to 129.2 degrees. Burt says the only
        other location which has posted a credible reading this hot is
        Mitribah, Kuwait, which also hit 129.2 degrees on July 21 in the
        summer.</font><br>

    <blockquote><font size="-1">Enhanced submarine ice-shelf melting
        strongly controls ice loss in the Amundsen Sea embayment (ASE)
        of West Antarctica, but its magnitude is not well known in the

        directly quantify bottom ice losses along tens of kilometres ...
        which buttress the rapidly changing Smith, Pope and Kohler
        glaciers. Melting in the grounding zones is found to be much

        between 2002 and 2009 beneath the retreating Smith Glacier.
        ...The vigorous, unbalanced melting supports the hypothesis that
        a significant increase in ocean heat influx into ASE
        sub-ice-shelf cavities took place in the mid-2000s. <br>
