There is no global warming, in fact there is a start of a cooling trend. Some scientists think we are about to enter a mini ice age. The Global warming is a political agenda issue, trumped up and not real. [/quote] The sudden increase in temperatures is due to the extreme flares / sunspot activity. After that it will cool down again. Global warming as "caused by man" is totally bogus, but global warming as caused by our sun getting ready to chuck a wobbly - well, that's real. Sunblock just won't cut it. [/quote] This argument is an attempt at dismissing a lot of hard evidence that mankind's affect on our atmospheres general condition is proving to be substantial. It is the argument of people who do not have the mental capacity to consider the dynamics of our present conundrum. "totally bogus" hardly.... [/quote]

From AP article...
"It's been so warm in the United States this year, especially in March, that national records weren't just broken, they were deep-fried.
Temperatures in the lower 48 states were 8.6 degrees above normal for March and 6 degrees higher than average for the first three months of the year, according to calculations by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. That far exceeds the old records.
The magnitude of how unusual the year has been in the U.S. has alarmed some meteorologists who have warned about global warming. One climate scientist said it's the weather equivalent of a baseball player on steroids, with old records obliterated.
"Everybody has this uneasy feeling. This is weird. This is not good," said Jerry Meehl, a climate scientist who specializes in extreme weather at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colo. "It's a guilty pleasure. You're out enjoying this nice March weather, but you know it's not a good thing."
