Ethanol in gasoline can favorably impact mobile source emissions in at least four main air quality areas: fine particulate matter (e.g., PM2.5), carbon monoxide, toxics, and global warming. Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5): A Colorado study finds that with 3.5 percent oxygen (the amount found in E10 blends), the PM reduction is 36 percent for the normal fleet and ...
Global warming could be partly to blame for increases in some human and animal viral infections. ...
More intense, more frequent and longer duration heat waves are projected for California in the coming decades due to global warming. “As our climate changes with more extreme events, Californians can expect longer, more intense heat waves like the one in the summer of 2006, which means more heat-related illnesses and emergency room visits,” said Kim Knowlton, ...
And the problem is growing as the Earth heats up due to global warming. Outbreaks of the deadly parasitic disease are spreading into temperate latitudes a little more each year, health officials report. ...
