Heating up sensation


“An international body of climate scientists issued somber findings today that even more strongly confirm that Earth's rising air and ocean temperatures are very likely due to the increase in emissions from the burning of fossil fuels. Even if the industrial nations start to immediately reduce emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and other greenhouse gases, the past and future gases will continue to contribute to global warming and the rise of oceans for more than 1,000 years, according to a long-awaited report released in Paris.” Jane Kay, San Francisco Chronicle
