Body Heat (and death)

One sobering realization: The body temperature is 98.6 degrees Farenheight. If the environmental temperature is above 98.6 degrees Farenheight then your body can overheat and you can die. Only 6 hours in one hundred degree heat without relief and you risk death. THAT is serious and that is REAL.

This is actually serious consequence of Global Climate Change. If the current models are correct, then the likely outcome of "Global Warming" will be a planet where the Equator is too hot for humans or mammals to survive. People will only be able to live in Antarctica, or Alaska. It has been that warm before (in the Mesozoic era) and it is not impossible for the Earth to return to that climate again relatively soon.
