...Otherwise, we're led to believe, he might have kept his inflammatory theories about evolution to himself. For one thing, they upset the deeply religious Emma, portrayed by a painfully stick-thin Connelly as a woman of humorless severity. But he's continually pushed to write the book. His friend and advocate, biologist Thomas Huxley (Toby Jones), drops by Darwin's country home to needle him to get cracking on that book.

The research shows the overwhelming answer is absolutely...
Even oversimplified, it's an extremely complicated thing to figure out. Take sea level, for example. Most studies on climate change talk about the average rise worldwide. But things can look very different when you zoom into specific stretches of coast. Ocean currents can make local sea level higher or lower than the world average. So can the continuing rebound of land from the weight of glaciers from the last ice age, even though they melted more than 10,000 years ago. Factors like the extraction of oil and gas, like in the Gulf of Mexico, can also make...
