Though this method of approximation ( also known as a " cheat " because it's not really a global illumination method ) is easy to perform computationally, when used alone it does not provide an adequately realistic effect.

Since the CFCs themselves are equally powerful greenhouse gases, the mere substitution of HFCs for CFCs does not significantly increase the rate of anthropogenic global warming, but over time a steady increase in their use could increase the danger that human activity will change the climate.

It is not to be confused with comparative history, which like world history, deals with the history of multiple cultures and nations, but does not do so on a global scale.

" The IPCC Third Assessment Report from 2001 summarised research at that time, saying "… current evidence does not support globally synchronous periods of anomalous cold or warmth over this time frame, and the conventional terms of ' Little Ice Age ' and ' Medieval Warm Period ' appear to have limited utility in describing trends in hemispheric or global mean temperature changes in past centuries ".

Before Linux 2. 6. 33, ReiserFS heavily used the big kernel lock ( BKL ) — a global kernel-wide lock — which does not scale very well for systems with multiple cores, as the critical code parts are only ever executed by one core at a time.

( This does not mean global alignments cannot end in gaps.
