Hot temperatures, hot tempers. A study has been done which seems to show that extreme temperatures, especially very hot and dry, leads to more violent nature by humans. Thus, by extension, it would seem that if global warming is taking place, then more conflict and wars between people and nations will occur. Of course, I have seen more than a few of these "studies" over the past several months, as a push is on to convince the American citizenry of their need to reduce our carbon footprint. This, in spite of the fact that other, larger, countries are now just emerging and as they come on line to take advantage of an improved lifestyle, they will generate a hundred times more carbon products than they do already. What do you think their response will be when we, the USA, ask them to slow down and reduce their carbon footprint? It will be WTF are you talking about, and mind your own business, probably leading to conflicts which will coincide with the higher temperatures.
