UCLA and Lawrence Livermore researchers have found that most climate models overestimate the increase in global precipitation due to climate change. Conveniently, this quantity can be measured from space, allowing the team to assess how well the models capture the physics controlling changes in global precipitation.

Heath has great job security: half of Phoenix residents are at risk of an emergency room visit or worse if their electricity fails during a future heat wave, according to a recent study. In other words, an incremental efficiency improvement in heating will have a much bigger overall impact on energy demand and therefore climate change.

Given its high efficiency and its performance and in light of climate change, the diesel engine will remain an important technology for years to come, especially for those who travel long distances. Demand for diesel cars was particularly strong among private customers, where the share almost doubled from 15% in 2017 to 27% last year.
