However, hotter and drier conditions could exacerbate current strains on aging infrastructure, leaving more than one-third of U.S. households grappling with unaffordable bills, according to a study led by Stanford University researchers that was published earlier this month.“If you’re already struggling to pay your water bill, and now it’s going to be double what it was before because of climate change, you’re going to really…

However, what we saw from Brooke Henderson of Smiths Falls, Ontario on Sunday was simply fabulous at the Evian Masters in France. Henderson began her day seven strokes back of Hae-ran Ryu of Geumjeong-myeon, South Korea. Ryu was at -19, and Henderson was at -12. Then in the fourth round, Henderson had a round for the ages. She shot a score of seven-under-par 64 to force a playoff, only…
