A few decades later, and that same uninhabitable desert will have extended into Spain, Italy, Australia and much of the southern United States.
Australian scientists are trying to give kangaroo-style stomachs to cattle and sheep in a bid to cut the emission of greenhouse gases blamed for global warming, researchers say.
