Climate Change Will Kill Billions, Scientist Says

Climate change will kill billions of people this century as the Earth warms, passing into a “fever” phase from which it may take 100,000 years to recover, James Lovelock, the scientist who propounded the “Gaia” theory, said.

Temperatures in temperate regions such as Europe and the U.S., will soar by 8 degrees Celsius (14 degrees Fahrenheit) this century, and those in the tropics will rise by 5 degrees as a result of man-made emissions, Lovelock wrote in today’s Independent newspaper
