We are experiencing an epidemic of children with peanut allergy, and according to recent studies the incidence of peanut allergy has quadrupled in the past 13 years! Interestingly, this increased incidence is not seen in all countries. One observation was that countries that encouraged infants to eat peanut products in infancy noted that the incidence of peanut allergy was considerably less than in countries that like the U.S. that advised holding off on exposing at risk children to peanuts and tree nuts until they were at least 3 years old.

Climate change is driven by increased levels of carbon dioxide and pollutants in the atmosphere. Thinking back to your grade school biology, you may remember that we breathe oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, but plants do the opposite. Plants use the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to "breathe" and release oxygen as a by-product of their metabolism.
