"The extra detail is testament to the vast amount of scientific observation which has been undertaken in recent years. Twenty-nine thousand real-world observations were included in the analysis."
"There is observational evidence of regional impacts on every continent on physical and biological systems," said Cynthia Rosenzweig, a climate impacts specialist with the US space agency Nasa.
"There are multiple lines of evidence that human-induced climate change is happening now, and the impacts are being seen now." http://www.ipcc.ch/~~~~~~~~~
James Inhofe and the flat earth society better now realize that picking the gold bars over our planet does mean we DO lose everything. And this Congress better get moving across the aisle and Bush better sign evasive legislation now or face the consequences of his indifference to his own people later, for climate change and the environmental holocaust that will come the longer we sit by just talking about it will not distinquish between political parties. The time for all of this partisan political bs and using this crisis as a political shield needs to be over. All it has done is lose us PRECIOUS time that we have needed to take action on a crisis that is affecting every corner of this planet to the detriment of the poorest. It is IMMORAL to continue to ignore this threat to our planet. Simply immoral.
