Climate change is worsening allergy season, scientists find

California poppies and Canterbury bells bloom at Diamond Valley Lake, near Hemet, California. (Credit: David McNew/Getty Images) In addition, climatologists say excess carbon dioxide generated from burning fossil fuels is helping make even more pollen, thus adding to the problem. "Pollen seasons have, are now starting about 20 days earlier, and there’s about 20 percent more pollen in the air," said William Anderegg, a biologist and climate scientist at the University of Utah.

Philadelphia officer to be dismissed after allegedly giving false statements in gun case

PHILADELPHIA - A veteran Philadelphia police officer has been suspended with the intent to dismiss after investigators say he gave false statements and testimony in a gun case last year. Officer Daniel Levitt was arrested Thursday on charges of perjury, unsworn false statements and official oppression. In 2021, authorities say the Philadelphia Police Department’s Internal Affairs unit conducted an audit of city-wide arrests of individuals for violations of the Uniform Firearms Act. MORE HEADLINES: The audit prompted an investigation into an arrest made by Levitt on April 28, 2021. During that investigation, authorities determined that Levitt, a 12-year veteran of the force, violated department policy. Commissioner Outlaw announced Thursday that she has suspended Levitt for 30 days with the intent to dismiss at the end of the suspension. "It never feels good to learn that one of our own has been charged with a crime," said Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw.
