This graph fromn average across all the cities, there were 12 8-hour NAAQS exceedance days per summer for the current climate, and nearly 20 8-hour NAAQS exceedance days per summer for the future climate. Image credit: NRDC
While researchers at Columbia's New York Climate and Health Project (NYCHP) were investigating the health impacts of climate change in the New York metropolitan region, they were simultaneously collaborating on a national report using their innovative modelling and prediction techniques. The national report, released today by the Natural Resources Defense Council, is called Heat Advisory: How Global Warming Causes More Bad Air Days."
