Written By H. Pike Oliver

An article  in the on-line edition of the California Section the New York Times on June 22, 2017, by Brad Plumer and Nadja Popovich contained dynamic map of how 95-degree (Fahrenheit) days would increase world-wide If there is no action to reduce global warming, and emissions continue to rise at the same pace they did in the first decade of the 21st century.

The mapping is based on an analysis from the Climate Impact Lab, a collaboration of climate scientists, economists, data engineers, researchers, analysts, and students from the University of California at Berkeley, the Energy Policy Institute at the University of Chicago (EPIC), Rhodium Group and Rutgers University.
