Topic Reading-Vol.914-10/12/2014

Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Climate Change Could Alter the Human Male-Female Ratio
Are male fetuses more vulnerable to the climate change than the ones of female? A new study by Japanese scientists found that fewer baby boys were born nine months after a severe temperature change than usual based on the data taken since 1968. There have been more temperature fluctuations later in the period in Japan where the temperature gap between winter and summer is already wider than the countries that took similar data.
But what about the influence of air conditioners which has become popular during the period? Can’t modern device for comfort help reduce the impact of the recent climate change?
Enjoy reading and learning another possible influence of the climate change.
