    AI Overview   
      
    A 1-degree Celsius increase in the Earth's average temperature requires   
    approximately 5 exaJoules of energy. This is equivalent to the US energy   
    consumption over four million years.   
      
   --   
   A large spider in an old house built a beautiful web in which to catch flies.   
   Every time a fly landed on the web and was entangled in it the spider devoured   
   him, so that when another fly came along he would think the web was a safe and   
   quiet place in which to rest. One day a fairly intelligent fly buzzed around   
   above the web so long without lighting that the spider appeared and said,   
   "Come on down." But the fly was too clever for him and said, "I never light   
   where I don't see other flies and I don't see any other flies in your house."   
   So he flew away until he came to a place where there were a great many other   
   flies. He was about to settle down among them when a bee buzzed up and said,   
   "Hold it, stupid, that's flypaper. All those flies are trapped." "Don't be   
   silly," said the fly, "they're dancing." So he settled down and became stuck   
   to the flypaper with all the other flies.   
      
   Moral: There is no safety in numbers, or in anything else.
