USDA to revise map showing rising temps in U.S.
My fellow Sun blogger Susan Reimer has an entry today on Garden Variety about a map that the U.S. Department of Agriculture has put together on rising U.S. temperatures.
USDA plans to revise the map, divided into zones, that show temperatures rising across the country. It should be ready by fall. But you can see an interactive version of the existing map on the Arbor Day Foundation Web site now. It show changes in temperatures from 1990 to 2006.
A coincidence that news of an update comes around the same time the House passes a major energy bill with a cap-and-trade plan to control emissions of climate warming gasses?
