U.S. Department of Energy Scientist: If climate 'trial' occurred 'only those with religious convictions of warming claims would continue to hold any support for man-made global warming' | Climate Depot
[Brian G. Valentine] If the US Public were to be made aware of these facts – at the testimony of a trial involving the EPA – then only those with religious convictions of the idea would continue to hold any support for AGW. That is in fact a very small number of people.

Falsehood cannot be sustained indefinitely – and the EPA might as well get it over with and let the facts come to light before all eyes.
Global Warming = Heat Waves, Crop Damage ... and Toxic Corn Syrup? - thedailygreen.com
At certain temperature thresholds (84.2 degrees for corn, 86 degrees for soybeans and 89.6 degrees for cotton), crops become dramatically less productive.

Finally, a third study shows that that ubiquitous ingredient in processed foods (and commercial honey bee food), high-fructose corn syrup, becomes toxic when allowed to heat up to 120 degrees. The University of Wisconsin study is published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.
Iowa State on corn growth: Ideal temperature around 93 F
The crop grows according to an "S"-shaped curve depending on temperature, with the ideal temperature for crop growth, if everything else is satisfactory such as nutrition and water availability, being somewhere around 93o F (34o C)
