Potential Impacts of Climate Change on the Biofuels Industry in Oklahoma During the 21st Century


Click on the blue title above to read a recent article from Oklahoma Crossroads about climate change and global warming. See what the projected temperature and precipitation changes could be for the latter part of this century. Cycles of wet or dry time periods are becoming much longer. Also dry areas of the world are forcast to become drier and wet areas wetter. Extreme temperatures will become more so. On August 12, 1936 (during a drought) an area in southwestern Oklahoma recorded a high temperature of 120 degrees F. Could it happen again?
