This apparently is a big fucking deal, and if you haven't heard yet, all the polar bears are going to die. It's a big fucking deal you see- dead polar bears. How tragic. Have I garnished any sympathy yet? Hell, penguins are even cuter. And shit! They will die too! This is horrible fucking news, I better run out and buy that hybrid car or perhaps first I should scold my neighbor for driving the truck he obviously doesn't need.
Ok, enough sarcasm.
Anyway, the earth has risen 0.6 C since around the 1850s right? And let's see, the temp. during the middle ages was over 1.5 C higher than the current temps. So that means the the earth has already been 2.0+ C higher than the pre-industrial revolution time. And surprise? The fucking bears are still here (and those cute little penguins).
This also makes an astoundingly solid case for CO2 induced global warming due to the large number of coal burning power plants and SUV's in America during the period 900 to 1100 AD. (just a little more sarsasm
)
