: “And by 2100, New York City could see, on average, 16 days above 100 degrees. Atlanta could be looking at 39 days over 100 degrees for a year. In Chicago, 26 days of 100-plus. Dallas would see 98 days.” He then called for action: “And Las Vegas, by 2100, 138 days a year of 100-plus temperatures if we don’t do something to change this outcome.”
Another 38 days a year? People will survive.
And what does Al base these figures on? A climate model? DO we know how accurate that model is? Has it been validated? Can it reproduce the actual experience in the US over the period of greatest CO2 augmentation - the last 65 years?
Would that be a NO?
