The Woods Hole study analyzes 1980 to 1994 episodes, noting hotter drier conditions reduce photosynthesis and release more CO2 into the atmosphere.

Court overturns abortion protest acquittals in 1995 clinic block
The U S 2nd Circuit reversed Judge Sprizzo and held that conscience driven religious belief does not excuse contempt for blocking the Women's Medical Pavilion in Dobbs Ferry in 1995. The ruling preserves potential double jeopardy concerns for defendants Bishop George Lynch and Brother Christopher Moscinski while allowing acquittals to stand on other grounds.
