UK temperatures to rise 4 degrees by 2080
A worldwide distributed computer program predicts a rise in temperature for the British Isles of 4 degrees Celsius. Apart from that an increased winter rainfall and summer drought were also predicted. The computers connected to the network made their calculations to a number of different models and the results were put into a graph. Probability of the models was taken from the results the models gave for the temperature curve in the past.
As seen on the map below the UK will not have the highest increase in temperature. Regions like Alaska and the North Pole will suffer an even higher increase.
Now is this all caused by mankind or do we just live in a time of global warming caused by the cycles the Earth makes throughout eons. One thing that we could be sure of is the fact that there aren't enough quality resources on Earth to satisfy the a total population of over 6 billion people. We already see the problems now China is getting wealthier, what if also Africa begins to start growing? The world is getting overpopulated and the only one who can change that is humanity itself.
