Troy Squires of FieldTurf says the increase in temperature is minimal.
While the tech minds of California struggle to rescue people from the threat of a ten degree increase in global temperatures over the next 50 years, the tech minds of Israel struggle to protect us from the threat of a million degree increase in temperature in a crowded city over a nanosecond.
They have discounted the effect of both on the temperature increase over the last century because they either happen over too short a timescale, or they are too weak.
With traditional chemicals reducing the temperature of the wash would increase the amount of time it takes, but enzymes behave differently.

Climate sensitivity is a key parameter for estimating the long-term temperature increase expected from a doubling of the concentration of greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere.
The researchers specifically rejected any assumption that the 1995 increase of hurricane activity was related to any global surface temperature increases over the past century that might be ascribed to anthropogenic (man-made) greenhouse gases.
Temperature increases were found to increase the chances of people developing severe headaches, and low atmospheric pressure, which usually causes cloudy, stormy weather, can have a smaller effect.
"So-called 'sceptics' should now drop their thoroughly discredited claims that the increase in global average temperature could be attributed to the impact of growing cities, " he said.
Arrhenius predicted that if the carbon dioxide concentration increased, the mean temperature of the surface of the earth would increase, in pretty much the way he said it would.

Well, the magical moisture-absorbing material may get even better, as the plan is to increase the amount of water the material can hold and lower the temperature threshold for its release.
Mr Weitzman reckons they should look instead at events that are less likely to materialise but cannot be ruled out (the right-hand tail of the curve), such as a massive temperature increase within a century.
Dr Chris Huntingford, of the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, said the temperature increase was "in agreement with simulations by many independent climate centres around the world".

We can directly measure the results that solar forcing had, such as in driving CO2 out of the oceans by heating them up, and the resultant increase in temperature that this increase caused.
FORBES: Antarctic Temperatures Are Rising Twice As Fast As Previously Predicted
That would take a much, much larger temperature increase, and the rising sea levels would be only one of many headaches.

The study simulated changes in agricultural yields as a result of changing precipitation and temperature patterns, finding that crop yields may increase under the higher temperature and precipitation under many climate-change scenarios in this region.
This year Intel will lap AMD by finally scrapping the old Pentium-chip architecture in favor of a suite of lower-temperature, dual-core microprocessors that consume 35% less power and increase performance by 80%.
The top line message is that the increase in concentrations over the "noughties" has partially masked temperature rise - similar to the conclusion of the research released two weeks ago, but using a radically different line of inquiry.
And as temperature increase across Arctic and sub-Arctic regions, it may affect modern-day descendants of these ancient people.
Before the 1960s Imja was a glacier, but a recent temperature increase in the Himalayan region melted it into a substantial lake, which glistens under the shadow of the awe-inspiring Everest range.
