With the ongoing news of rising gas prices in the US — even if they still are half that of Europe — and the shocking stat that the average American works two hours a day just to afford their car, here's a rather hopeful stat on automobile dependency to attempt to balance that out: A new radio interview from Australia's The Science Show reveals that even with growing car ownership in many so - called emerging economies, on a global basis car ownership per capita has peaked.

Maps show projected change in average surface air temperature in the later part of this century (2071 - 2099) relative to the later part of the last century (1970 - 1999) under a scenario that assumes substantial reductions in heat trapping gases (B1) and a higher emissions scenario that assumes continued increases in global emissions (A2).

[This is the] classic paper showing that rising greenhouse gas concentrations lead to increasing global average surface temperature.

A paper that Joules Verne, of all people, sent to me that examines this extreme limit shows explicitly that if there is a thermal lapse across this gas it has a weak asymmetry in its conductivity that makes gas relax thermal gradients from top to bottom slightly faster than it does gradients from bottom to top, but the split smoothly vanishes as the gradient does, strongly suggesting that even in this limit if we (correctly) require that the length of a vertical parcel to be much greater than the MFP (and hence much much greater than) the bulk averages will still satisfy the usual kinetic theory and I have a sneaking suspicion that overall they will still satisfy the MB distribution, even though the average itself will be extremely odd.
