Heat Waves And Crop Losses Predicted For California

Global warming will likely put enormous strain on California's water supply and energy systems and have a devastating impact on certain crops. Stanford researchers predicted outcomes based on projections from two different emission scenarios.

Both of the scenarios indicate there will be more frequent heat waves and generally rising temperatures.
