Average global temperatures have risen 1 degree Fahrenheit over the last century. If carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases continue to spill into the atmosphere, global temperatures could rise five to 10 degrees by the middle of the next century. The warning will be the greatest at the higher latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere, with the largest temperature rises occurring in .....


Deforestation
Number of words: 1418 - Number of pages: 6

Pruiser and his team of scientists at the School of Medicine of the University of California at San Francisco in which a study was carried out on mice to see if he was able to purify the scrapie agent ,another prion disease, in mice. But mice as humans took very long to develope the disease, for example Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheink .....
