Bonfils adds that researchers have found "empirical evidence that irrigation has a large cooling effect on local summer daytime temperatures but minimal effect on nighttime temperatures."
David Lobell, one of the authors of the study issued by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, declares that "If this hypothesis is verified, the acceleration of CO2 emissions combined with a leveling of irrigation may result in a rapid summertime warming in the Central Valley in the near future."...
states on our natural environment are not likely to end unless scientists and researchers can come to some solid conclusions about how to stop global warming. As Duffy sums it up, "If human-induced climate change is occurring, societal impacts... cannot be far behind" which shows that global warming is indeed a very serious problem.
