I WASHINCiTON — The pie-
diuetl wanning of Earlh’s di-
mate in decades ahead from ihe
carbon dioxide “greenhouse
elect” is no cause to panic, says a
National Research Council com-
, ( miuee — but the warming is a
'cause for concern.
I The committee, which is part
of the research arm of the Na-
MldJbnal Academy of Sciences, re
ported Thursday to Congress
buujon the two-year study,
secuiil One aullior suggested man-
—' ki|id has a period of about 20
years in which to decide what
action, if any, to lake.
The committee said there is
no doubt carbon dioxide con
centrations in the air are increas
ing, primarily from burning
coal, oil and gas. In the past 25
years, the concentration in
creased more than 7 percent.
Carbon dioxide in the almos-
t there acts like glass in a green-
rouse — allowing heat from the
sun to reach Earth but inhibiting
the return flow of that heat back
into space.
As a result, the committee
said it concludes that the planet
will warm up as more carbon
dioxide reaches the atmosphere.
It said that a doubling of carbon
dioxide concentrations, most
likely to occur after 2050, will
probably increase surface air
warming anywhere from 2.7 de
grees Fahrenheit to 8 degrees.
The report said that such car
bon dioxide increases don’t
effect the quality of the air for
humans to breathe, but that en
vironmental changes of this
magnitude are of concern.
“Man-made emissions of
greenhouse gases promise to im
pose a warming of unusual
dimensions on a global climate
that is already unusually warm,”
the report said. “We may get into
trouble in ways that we have
barely imagined.”
The committee repeated the
likely effects outlined in an ear
lier Environmental Protection
Agency report — drastic
changes to global weather pat
terns, changes in agriculture,
rises in sea level with resultant
coastal flooding, and an uneven
impact on various parts of the
world.
The committee is headed by
Will iam Nierenberg of the
Scripps Institution of Oceanog
raphy, La Jolla, Calif.
“We’re flashing a yellow light
but not a red light,” said Roger
Revelle, a committee member
from the University of Califor
nia at San Diego.

Chemical
linked to
leadership
United Press International
The officers of a college
fraternity have something in
common with dominant male
vervet monekeys: Their ele
vated social status is reflected in
the level of a key blood chemical
that affects the brain, the Octo
ber issue of Science Digest re
ports.
Dominant monkeys behave
differently from subordinates.
For example, they spend more
lime looking out for danger.
Subordinates are more compla
cent.
UCLA Medical School re-
learchers have found that domi
nant male vervet monkeys have
almost twice as much serotonin
in their blood as subordinates.
Serotonin is one of many
neurotransmilters — chemicals
that carry messages between
nerves.
| Interestingly, if a dominant
male is removed from the
group, the amount of serotonin
mhis blood will fall.
bill.
“He’s worn out,” said Beatty,
who went to bat for Jackson last
February following his release
from prison.
Since his release, Jackson has
been unemployed. He has re
ceived $10,000 from an anony
mous benefactor in Wisconsin
and was recently charged with
assault.
He has denied the charge.
