Human-induced global heating ‘causes over a third of heat
deaths’
More than a third of all heat-related deaths around the
world between 1991 and 2018 can be attributed to human-
induced global heating, research has found.
Climate breakdown has a range of effects ranging from
wildfires to extreme weather. As the temperatures rise, more
intense and frequent heatwaves disproportionately affect
elderly people and those with underlying chronic conditions
such as asthma, making them more vulnerable to disease and
premature death.
A study, published in the journal Nature Climate Change,
used data from 732 locations in 43 countries to calculate the
number of deaths attributed to heat levels higher than the ideal
temperature for human health, which varies across locations.
The researchers examined past weather conditions
simulated under scenarios with and without emissions triggered
by human activity – allowing them to separate the warming and
related health impact linked with human activity from natural
trends.
Overall, they found 37% of all heat-related deaths in the
locations studied were attributable to human activity – but the
185
largest climate change-induced contributions (more than 50%)
were in southern and western Asia (Iran and Kuwait), south-
east Asia (the Philippines and Thailand) and Central and South
America.

Towers: a creeping horror
The horror arrived in epsodic bursts of chilling
disbelief, signified first by trembling floors, sharp
eruptions, cracked windows. There was the cruel sight of
bodies helplessly tumbling out, some of them in flames.
Finally, the high and impressive towers themselves were
reduced to nothing. Dense plumes of smoke raced through
the downtown avenues, coursing between the buildings,
shaped like tornadoes on their sides.
Every sound was cause for alarm. A plane appeared
overhead. Was another one coming? No, it was a fighter jet.
But was it friend or enemy? People scrambled for their
lives, but they didn’t know where to go. Should people go
north, south, east, west? Stay outside, go indoors? People
hid beneath cars and each other. Some contemplated
jumping into the river (…).

The practical impacts of climate change can be hard to
predict because of the large scales of time and geography
over which changes are occurring. But more frequent jolts
in midair could be one way in which individuals will soon
literally feel the effects.
A new scientific study says that severe turbulence could
become two to three times more common later this century
when there is twice as much carbon dioxide in the
atmosphere.
‘Our new study paints the most detailed picture yet of
how aircraft turbulence will respond to climate change,’
says author Dr. Paul Williams. ‘Even the most seasoned
frequent fliers may be alarmed at the prospect of a 149%
increase in severe turbulence, which frequently hospitalizes
air travelers and flight attendants around the world.’
Climate change is expected to lead to stronger vertical
wind shears in the jet stream, at the cruising altitude for
most jet aircraft. Wind shears can become unstable and
cause turbulence.
Williams used supercomputers simulations that
calculate clear-air turbulence along Transatlantic routes in
winter and found all turbulence strength levels will increase
in a world with twice as much CO2. The computer models
show the average amount of light turbulence will increase
by 59%, light-to-moderate turbulence by 75%, moderate by
94%, moderate-to-severe by 127%, and severe by 149%.
Ironically, or perhaps poetically, aviation has long been
recognized as a major contributor of greenhouse gases to
the atmosphere.

PRESSURE
Commercial airplane cabins are generally pressurized to
an equivalent of 6,000 to 8,000 feet above sea level, in an
effort to maintain a healthy oxygen level for both the
passengers and the flight crew. When a passenger jet is
flying at a cruising altitude of over 36,000 feet, the pressure
outside the cabin is_____________ than inside the
pressurized cabin. Air pressure has a tendency to equalize,
moving from areas of high pressure to low pressure to

achieve equilibrium. When a hole rips open on a plane, the
suction resulting from the pressure difference between the
cabin and the sky could pull nearby people or objects
outside. Depending on the size of the hole, such accidents
could either create just enough force to shuffle papers
around, or, pull a full-size human out of the plane. Survival
is unlikely for anyone fully sucked out into the sky.
While in-flight incidents are extremely rare, if you want
to survive a crash, research suggests the best place to sit is
in a middle seat toward the back of the plane.
a) more low
b) the lowest
c) much lower
d) the most low

To tip, or not to tip?
The word tip comes from an old English slang.
Americans usually tip people in places like restaurants,
airports, hotels, and hair salons.
People who work in these places often get paid low
wages. A tip shows that the customer is pleased with
service.
Sometimes it’s hard to know how much to tip. The size
of the tip usually depends on the service. People such as
parking valets or bellshops usually get (small)
_____________ tips. The tip for people such as taxi drivers
and waiters or waitresses is usually (large) _____________.
When you’re not sure about how much to tip, do what
feels right. You don’t have to tip for bad services. And you
can give a (big) _____________ tip for a very good service.
Remember, though, your behavior is (important)
_____________ than your money. Always treat service
providers with respect.
