Is anyone else having this problem or is it a problem on my end? I'll check back later on and see if the problem still exists. I’m not sure why but this weblog is loading extremely slow for me.

Also, it would be nice to know if the researchers looked at the role played by black soot and other relevant aerosols. The article talks of problems in the 2070s, but it seems that if these other factors are considered the problems could arise much sooner. “Our analysis highlights the potential impacts of climate change if greenhouse gas emissions continue on their current trajectory,” says Diffenbaugh,

Are these trajectories for anthropogenic emissions only, or do they include CO2e contributions from melting permafrost, seabed clathrates and so on?
