In an effort to clarify a point, I propose an ever expanding thread used to archive the continuous flow of information pointing to a change in Earths Climate. Though I myself am convinced beyond any reasonable doubt of a relatively swift change taking place at this time, it is clear some have a differing opinion on the issue. Hopefully we will see a pattern emerge in the posted data as time passes, thus I hope to see anything anyone has that might show I am wrong to believe in this change in climate.
I will start with this:

North-West Passage is now plain sailing
"Analysts confirm that the passage is almost completely clear and that the region is more open than it has ever been since the advent of routine monitoring in 1972," they said in research conclusions published on the centre's website.
The news is yet another milestone showing that the Earth is warming up. The route was first navigated in the early 1900s by the Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen, who later beat Robert F Scott in the race to the south pole in 1911. Amundsen and his crew took nearly two years to pick their way through a labyrinth of narrow lanes of open water and thick ice. Now it would be comparatively plain sailing.
