    2 degrees C is equivalent to 35.6 degrees Fahrenheit, and once the climate gets 35.6 degrees F warmer, scientists predict bad things happening. The Middle Eastern region, which is already one of the hottest areas in the world, would be the first to experience cities no longer able to be lived in. “The study looked at "wet-bulb temperature," which is a value that combines air temperature and humidity. Wet-bulb temperature is always less than the actual air temperature, unless the air is 100% saturated, with drier air having a lower wet-bulb temperature compared with the air temperature,” Brandon Miller wrote. Cities where very hot and dry deserts meet humid Gulf coastlines such as Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Kuwait City have been studied to how they will change by 2100.…

    In a 2016 article entitled “Changing Climate” the author Thomas Sumner discusses a variety of topics that revolve around how humans have impacted the Earth’s climate. “Changing Climate” examines climate change research, ocean circulation, hurricane research, and geology and climate.
