EXCERPT:
COLBERT: "The temperature is so high in Phoenix, Arizona, that flights are being cancelled because it's too hot for planes, because at higher temperatures, the air has a lower density, which reduces how much lift is generated. Scientists first realized this was a problem when they saw birds taking the bus north for summer. That's adorable. That's kind of adorable. Forget rising sea levels and droughts, this could be the disaster that finally convinces skeptics that climate change is real: A layover in Phoenix."
