A 12-YEAR-OLD born with a life-limiting condition has taken on a challenge for the charity which has supported him for nearly ten years. Jack Bennett, from Barrow, was less than a year old when he was diagnosed with a severe form of cerebral palsy and epilepsy – changing the lives of his family forever. His mum Joanne Bennett, who has another son, Daniel, was told by doctors that Jack would never sit independently, walk or talk in his lifetime. Against all the odds, Jack can now sit, bunny hop crawl, stand with support and has started to feed himself. The now 12-year-old took on a personal challenge of standing for one-and-a-half minutes in support of the Rainbow Hub’s 20th Birthday Celebration Virtual Ramble.

According to a team of international researchers, species evolve heat tolerance more slowly than cold tolerance, and the level of heat they can adapt to has limits.
In a study published in the
Nature Communications, McGill professor Jennifer Sunday and her co-authors wanted to understand how species thermal limits have evolved. To examine variation across the tree of life, the researchers developed the largest available database compiling thermal tolerances for all types of organisms (GlobTherm database).
