The Earth Cools, and Fight Over Warming Heats Up http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1256917990
Two years ago, a United Nations scientific panel won the Nobel Peace Prize after concluding that global warming is "unequivocal" and is "very likely" caused by man.
Then came a development unforeseen by the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, or IPCC: Data suggested that Earth's temperature was beginning to drop. That has reignited debate over what has become scientific consensus: that climate change is due not to nature, but to humans burning fossil fuels. Scientists who don't believe in man-made global warming cite the cooling as evidence for their case. Those who do believe in man-made warming dismiss the cooling as a blip triggered by fleeting changes in ocean currents; they predict greenhouse gases will produce rising temperatures again soon.

Those of you who are keeping an eye on us know we posted a story that put this "cooling" nonsense to rest (http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1256581129). Secondly, the real threat to our planet is CO2. No matter what the temp on the planet, the ocean is growing more acidified every day due to CO2. These "debates" are a distraction from the dangers we face.
