Temperature is vital to the health and welfare of all living beings, and Earth's
temperature varies considerably from place to place. Early humans could only
live in warm areas such as the tropics. Although modern humans have the
technology to keep their houses and offices warm even in cold environments, the
growth and development of civilization has created unintentional effects. Cities
are warmer than their surrounding regions, and on a global scale, Earth is
experiencing rising temperatures. Thus, the science of thermodynamics offers an
important tool to study these effects.
