OMG! Earth-hating republicans are gonna kill ALL the gingers!---------Climate change could make red hair a thing of the past if Scotland gets sunnier

Climate change could make red hair a thing of the past if Scotland gets sunnier - Daily Record:
"REDHEADS could become extinct as Scotland gets sunnier, experts have claimed.
The gene that causes red hair is thought to be an evolutionary response to the lack of sun in Scotland.
Redhead colouring allows people to get the maximum vitamin D from what little sun there is.
Only one to two per cent of the world’s population has red hair but in Scotland the figure is about 13 per cent, or 650,000 people.
However, the figure could fall dramatically – and even see redheads die out completely in a few centuries – if predictions that the country’s climate is set to become much sunnier are true."
