I've been checking the numbers of houses for sale in several areas over recent months, and the change has been startling - much more, indeed, than a 20 per cent fall in sales seems able to explain.
It is worth listening to the tracks in chronological order and pretending the album is on an old-fashioned LP because the change in the music and lyrical content is quite startling.
The report's startling numbers are based on calculations by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change that the Earth's atmosphere warmed by 0.74 degrees Celsius (1.33 degrees Fahrenheit) from 1906 to 2005, with much of that increase coming in recent decades.
