Answer to Question 1

Local climate patterns are very hard to predict, whether the world is warmer or
cooler. If Earth warms, some regions will see increased rainfall; if Earth cools, different
regions will see increased rainfall. (Also see Problem 16-23.)

Answer to Question 2

Because about three-quarters of Earth's surface is ocean, the oceans absorb about
three-quarters of the solar radiation.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

The use of salicylates dates back 2,500 years to Hippocrates's recommendation of willow bark (from which a salicylate is derived) as an aid to the pains of childbirth. However, overdosage of salicylates can harm body fluids, electrolytes, the CNS, the GI tract, the ears, the lungs, the blood, the liver, and the kidneys and cause coma or death.
