Global Climate Change Confirmed

http://www.theworld.org/2009/09/03/global-climate-change-confirmed/ (audio available after 5pm EST)

Arctic temperatures in the 1990s reached their warmest level of any decade in at least 2,000 years. That despite a gradual cooling trend over that time as the Earth cycled further away from the sun. A new study to be published in Science Magazine concludes that that cooling was reversed because of increased emissions of carbon dioxide and other green house gases. The World’s Katy Clark reports.

2. Science has a liberal bias....

I think this is a more compelling and definitive study though. It demonstrates that the "natural cycle" which is often cited by global warming deniers as the cause of our current warming, was actually REVERSED in the past few decades. The 2000 year study shows strong evidence that the "natural cycle" predicted continued cooling, but instead there was a significant and unexpected increase in temperatures coinciding with increased human industrial activity. This one is going to be hard to for them to dismiss and debunk.
