Beyond this threshold, the body&#8217;s ability to regulate its internal temperature becomes severely compromised, posing a significant risk to human health and well-being.<\/p>\n<p>Global warming has inflicted irreversible damage on our environment, a consensus echoed by nearly all scientists. Indeed, climate change poses a profound challenge. Our planet is witnessing conditions that increasingly jeopardize human habitation. The critical question now is whether we can adapt swiftly enough. Humans will experience greater loss and damage to life and quality of life from air pollution, decreasing supply of potable water, extreme weather events, disease, and other adverse health outcomes. The greatest short term climate change risk to human health is <a href=\"http:\/\/membrane.com\/global_warming\/Deadly-Humid-Heat.html\"><b>deadly humid heat<\/b> (wet-bulb temperature)<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/membrane.com\/global_warming\/notes\/feedback-loops.html\">Feedback loops<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/membrane.com\/global_warming\/Tipping-Points.html\">tipping points<\/a> are parts of an equation that determine <a href=\"http:\/\/membrane.com\/global_warming\/Climate-Change-Acceleration-Rate.html\">the rate of acceleration in climate change<\/a>. Triggering these tipping points results in the CO2 stored in nature to be released without the assistance of humans. Though we do not know how much carbon is stored in nature, it would be reasonable to assume that the temperature could be pushed from 3 degrees to 6 degrees above pre-industrial levels. Humans cannot thrive above a rise of 1.5 degrees. Much of the Earth will be uninhabitable if the temperature rises an additional 6 degrees Celsius. If humans also add 3 degrees Celsius, the temperature and humidity will approach a wet-bulb temperature that will not sustain human life.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"http:\/\/membrane.com\/change\/Philadelphia-Experiment\/\">To Cause a Change: Philadelphia Experiment<\/a><\/h2>\n<h2><a href=\"http:\/\/membrane.com\/4D-Music\/\">4D Music: Songs About Science<\/a><\/h2>\n<h2><a href=\"http:\/\/membrane.com\/global_warming\/\">A song about The Human Induced Climate Change Experiment<\/a><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Threshold Limit.mp4 The Threshold Limit.mp3 [Intro] It&#8217;s the moisture for sure The moisture in your future Sure, sure, sure The Threshold Limit Limit it Limit it [Verse 1] The humidity Gets the best of me The moisture in the air Just ain&#8217;t fair [Bridge] Once rare I swear Humidity Gets the best of me [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3,3945,5,9,14],"tags":[163,546,563,3946],"class_list":["post-32893","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-4d-music","category-change","category-chaos-theory","category-daniel","category-lyrics","tag-climate-change","tag-mp4","tag-music-videos","tag-philadelphia-experiment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32893","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32893"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32893\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32908,"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32893\/revisions\/32908"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32893"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=32893"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=32893"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
