How climate change is altering petrichor, the glorious smell after it rains
The distinct, earthy smell that fills the air after rain following a long dry spell can trigger some serious nostalgia. This scent, petrichor, goes right to our brain’s memory and emotional centers for reasons that may be to do with our very evolution. But as climate change alters Earth’s weather and environment, petrichor is going to transform, too.
(A couple of paragraphs on where the smell comes from and why it is so easy to smell)
Exactly how petrichor changes will depend on where you are as the effects of rising global temperatures on weather and climate patterns will vary from place to place and year to year. Overall, parts of the world that get more rainfall will experience less petrichor, whereas areas that have droughts will experience more, says Jeppe Lund Nielsen, a professor of microbial physiology at Aalborg University in Denmark.
You mean normal weather? Oh, but, this doom is coming in the future.

Climate change is real, but it’s a CYCLE a thousand years long. At the peak of the LAST cycle, Vikings grew barley and had dairy farms on Greenland – and it was green! At the peak of the PREVIOUS cycle, Romans had vineyards and grew wine grapes in Londinium.
In the low periods between the peaks, the Black Plague hit around 550AD, and about 400 years ago, the people on London held “Frost Faires” on the frozen Thames River, building pubs and market stalls, and LIVING on the ice. In 1814, they even had an elephant walking on the frozen Thames! In the Americas, American troops dragged cannon across the frozen Hudson River in 1777.
We’re about to the peak of this cycle, so the next change will be COLD, probably by 2070. Keep your heavy coats!
