The oxygen bars are the latest trend in many big and populated cities.Earlier,water and now oxygen,is openly sold in the market.
Talja [164]

This situation can be seen from two contrasting points of view.

From one side, it is not fair and it is cruel that the people are charged fro the basic things that enable them to live. The water and the oxygen are both natural resources, not human made, thus they should be free for usage for everyone.

On the other side, the people that use these water and oxygen bars are also responsible for the pollution of these natural resources. The majority of the people that live in the urban areas are not able to get clean air, or clean freshwater, so certain companies are doing that for them, thus it can not be seen as unfair as the resources that the people can not get are brought to them.

Which natural phenomena will over the next 13,000 years gradually cause the northern hemisphere to experience summer during toda
miss Akunina [59]

Earth’s wobble

The earth wobbles about its axis which is currently tilted at an angle of 24.5 degrees (even this tilt changes, over 41,000 years cycle, between 22.1° and 24.5°). This is referred to as axial precession in Milankovitch cycles that endeavor to explain a collective effect of astronomical phenomenons of earth in space that have an effect on earth's climate

Explanation:

The earth wobbles about its axis which is currently tilted at an angle of 24.5 degrees (even this tilt changes over 41,000 years cycle between 22.1° and 24.5°). This means over a cycle of 13,000 years the north pole will be tilted towards the sun at perihelion (when the plant is closest to the sun) and over the next cycle, the south pole will be tilted towards the sun at perihelion.

This cycle changes the rate and intensity of irradiation from the sun in either of the poles over the cycle. This consequently has an effect on the climate of the poles that changes with this astronomical phenomenon.
